Church of the Ascension is turning from black to gold.
Workers from Marsa Inc. Masonry Contractor have been working to remove 122 years of grime on the Shadyside church’s exterior since earlier this month. The months-long project also includes masonry repairs.
The church, which was designated an historic landmark in 1971, was one of 11 churches to receive a grant for renovations from the Pittsburgh History & Landmark Foundation’s Historic Religious Properties Grant Program this year.
