Jesuit Retreat House
The Jesuit Retreat House is a spiritual enrichment for all faiths since 1961 but wanted to adapt its facilities and programs to assist increasingly diverse people and a younger generation. The project increased accessibility with the addition of two elevators and 12 handicapped rooms, allows more flexibility to accommodate retreats in different formats and met the demand for conference space. Special attention was given to the historical aspects of the property as well. The conference center, which was originally built as a carriage house in 1917, had archways previously closed off with brick that were opened up as windows in the spiritual direction rooms.
