ST. ALPHONSUS CHURCH STAINED GLASS RESTORATION
This Gothic Revival landmark in downtown Baltimore was designed by Robert Cary Long Jr. and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Dating back to the 1840's, the stained glass windows in the nave were made in New York and are over 25 feet tall. The figurative windows were designed by Mayer of Munich in 1904.
In 2008, JRS spearheaded the restoration of the original cast-iron frames and stained glass windows. Over a century of dirt, pollution and damage needed to be addressed. Each window was carefully removed, disassembled, cleaned, repaired, releaded, and reinstalled. One window can contain over 1200 individual pieces of glass.
