The Steeple Top is UP!

The repaired section of the steeple has been reinstalled.

The newly repaired top section of the steeple has been reinstalled. With new wood components, heavier copper sheathing, and replated grotesques (gargoyles) we hope it is good for another 90 years.

Below are several snapshots. Click on a snapshot to see a larger version. Note: the photo of the the worker with the gargoyle is copyrighted bi the Post-Gazette. Clicking on it will take you to the PG Photo Journal for the larger picture.
