The restoration of Louisville’s City Hall focused on preserving its functionality and ensuring long-term durability while respecting its architectural heritage. The project, managed by Lord Aeck Sargent, involved addressing key structural and aesthetic concerns to enhance the building's performance in a modern urban context. The work included the cleaning and repair of limestone masonry, stabilization of deteriorating structural elements, restoration of wood windows, and replacement of copper gutters to improve water management. A collaborative approach was employed, working closely with the City to prioritize essential repairs within the budget, ensuring that critical government operations could continue uninterrupted during construction. Through this restoration, the building remains a vital hub for civic activities, maintaining its role as a key administrative center for the City of Louisville while extending its service life for future generations.
