Phase II-Renovations at St. Elizabeth House

Mercy Housing and Shelter Corporation is undertaking significant and much needed renovations to restore and rehabilitate

St. Elizabeth House located in Hartford, Connecticut.

This four story, 36,000 square foot building is comprised of the 200 year old “Henry Barnard House” (a Registered National Historic Landmark), and a 100 year old four story masonry addition.

Phase II of the project specifically involves ramping and renovations across the two joined buildings on the first, second and third floors to improve access, program and activity flow and design.  The building footprint is being expanded in order to accomadate new hallways.
