Renovations at Old North Church Expected to Completes Shortly

Renovations at the Old North Church and Historic site are expected to be completed this year, 2022.

The church is undertaking several capital projects to ensure the longevity of the iconic site and improve the visitor experience.

The Washington Garden and Court yard, is undergoing a major renovation to transform the garden into an outdoor classroom and rotating exhibits that offer shade, seating and a quiet place for relaxation.

Repointing and restoration of the garden walls began in 2021 and will be completed shortly.

The next phase of renovations will include installing new brick pavers and updating the garden with new trees and plantings. The garden will be unveiled in late spring.

The Old Not Crypt, in partnership with the National Park Services, will undergo a major renovation and restoration from June through September.

Work will include repointing and replacing historic bricks, lowering the floor for access ability and replacing tomb doors.

Construction work will be staged inside the church gate on Unity Street, and the Freedom Trail will remain open for visitors.
