Edward Tucker Architects were asked to evaluate the condition of the historically significant, 90-foot tall courthouse clock tower, construction around 1900. Extensive investigation revealed significant deterioration of the ornamental metal and stone. The architect completed detailed documentation of areas needing attending, working closely with the WV State Historic Preservation Office to coordinate historic preservation considerations and requirements.
The scope of work for the project included constructing scaffolding, selective demolition, reconstruction of brick masonry corbels, carpentry, flashing, rehabilitation of the stone, repair of the copper domes, cleaning and sealing the stone, and painting exposed wood and primed metal surfaces.
