Immanuel Presbyterian Church is reportedly the oldest incorporated entity in the state of Ohio, completed on Easter Sunday in 1885.
Over time, the church has grown and so has the building with several additions, including the most recent two-story mid-Century modern entry. This façade, while colorful, consisted of single pane cast glass panels direct set into a solid aluminum curtainwall system. Thermal and moisture performance, exacerbated by the lack of air conditioning in the lobby, with no overhangs or canopies at the east-facing entry, proved problematic.
