On a recent visit to the studio of Eve Guinan Design-Restoration, the Tower Window team viewed the progress of the window commissioned in honour of the Rev. Dr. G. Malcolm Sinclair’s 30 years of service at Metropolitan. We saw sheets of vibrantly coloured opalescent glass, observed the process of leading as well as the cutting of glass to fit the full-sized drawings. Fabrication of this glowing window will continue in 2022, with a goal for installation by year’s end.

Our sincere thanks to all the donors to this lasting tribute to Dr. Sinclair. Should you still wish to contribute to the installation of this tribute window, we continue to gratefully accept further donations. Please designate your contribution to “Tower Window."
