Danbury Community Ctr.

 

   This unique project involved the relocation of a 19th century church to serve as a community center and pre-school. Funded in part by a federal grant, the Town of Danbury purchased the vacant Baptist Church, adjacent to the Town Hall. The building suffered from the lack of proper foundations (concrete-filled kegs served as footings), a seasonal stream that ran underneath it, and an obscure location off the main street. The Town wanted to move the building about 150 yards, turn it and set it down on a new walk-out basement. In its new location it faces onto the town center intersection and helps reinforce the village image. Exterior trim and steeple details were all rebuilt. Both levels were made accessible. It is now in constant use as an integral part of town life. Construction Administration services were provided by Bauen Corporation of Meredith, NH.
