As their church members have aged, First Christian Church in Shawnee discovered the need for an elevator in their building. In 2011, kerr 3 designed an addition to the building. The purposes of the addition were to provide an elevator and integrate a porte cochere on the building’s exterior. kerr 3 worked with various code authorities to make this project as smooth as possible for the Owner. During construction, kerr 3 also verified that the site was suitable for church meetings each weekend.
