Metropolitan United Church

In 2005/06, we renovated Met's dank, dark sub-basement.   After 130 years of under-utilization, the lower level of the church now offers more than 11,000 square feet of usable space.

These new facilities enhance the social-service programs for which Met is respected and appreciated in the heart of our great city, as well as our youth and Christian Education programs, rich musical life, committee work, special events, celebrations and fellowship.

As part of the upgrades, electrical, plumbing, ventilation and climate control, fire and safety systems have all been brought up to state-of-the-art levels. The entire floor is equipped with a sprinkler system, and the mechanical and electrical systems have been sized to provide for easy renovation and growth in Phase II of this ambitious program. New washrooms, including accessible facilities, are in place. A new ventilation system for the nave, lacking until now, is included. Even new blowers for the organ!

The renovation and expansion of the upper levels of the church, is just ahead.
