 FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
McMinnville, Oregon
Dimensional Dynamics was approached in 1995 by the First Baptist Church of McMinnville, Oregon to discuss the renovation and addition to their existing 1921/1961 Spanish style church facility. The multi-leveled facility suffered from inadequate restrooms, non-existent Handicapped Accessibility, and poor functional relations one space to another.
With a review of their site and existing structures, Dimensional Dynamics proposed the church’s purchase of an adjoining lot to allow for on-site Handicapped, Senior, and Visitor parking, as well as access to a new Covered Car Drop-off and Narthex Gathering Room. The location of this Gathering Room allowed the functional connection of both the existing structures, along with the placement of Handicapped Restrooms, Elevator and Grand Stairs.
With the purchase of the desired lot and the completion and approval of a Master Plan Design, the church set forth with the total renovation and reconfiguration of their existing buildings and the addition of the new multi level connecting Narthex.
In the spring of 2001, Dimensional Dynamics was pleased to take part in the church’s dedication services. It was a pleasure to see that the facility’s designed level of flexible use by various church ministries had taken many congregants by surprise.
