Register here to join AIA Baltimore’s Historic Resources Committee for a tour of the renovations underway at MacDonough Hall on the campus of the US Naval Academy in Annapolis.
AIA Baltimore’s Historic Resources Committee is offering a unique opportunity to view a historically-listed building on the campus of the US Naval Academy. Originally built in 1903 as a boathouse, the 128,000 square foot, MacDonough Hall interior is being renovated as the Physical Education training center. The exterior granite walls, steel and terra cotta windows, and copper roof are being restored.
The tour will circle the Beaux Arts complex designed by Ernest Flagg, passing by the twin Dahlgren Hall and the main Bancroft Hall. We will then climb the scaffolding to see the huge stone carvings and restoration work, and finish by viewing the interior work in progress.
Tour guides will be Naomi Doddington, project manager for Consigli Construction, and Ward Bucher, Historical Architect and co-chair of AIA Baltimore’s Historic Resources Committee.
