Construction Updates

These current and upcoming construction projects support our goals of providing greater welcome, service, and beauty for all who visit. Thank you for your patience as we complete this important work.  

Bigelow Chapel Lawn Electrical Updates

We are currently installing electrical infrastructure on the perimeter of the Bigelow Chapel Lawn to provide permanent electrical power for outdoor events, including our inspiring and popular winter SOLSTICE program.  We are also improving lighting around the entrance to Bigelow Chapel to improve nighttime visibility for our increasing nighttime events, and adding new lighting along Central and Chapel Aves to connect Bigelow Chapel to Story Chapel and our main entrance area. The in-ground work will be complete in June, and the lighting installed later in July.

Coming Soon: A New Welcome Center!

Starting March 9, enhancement work will begin on the Egyptian Revival Gateway and its surrounding landscape to make Mount Auburn and the entrance more welcoming and pedestrian-friendly to our visitors.   Read More >>
