American Institutes of Architects Michigan

Jury Comment
"A landmark place of worship utilizing a post-modern palette and form, coupled with the sacred elements of the Greek Orthodox Church.  Surpassing the 25 year requirement, it is unchanged in both use and design. The committee deems it worthy of recognition, as it elevates what could be a root design into an inspiring and contemporary building. Impressive in the scale and worshiper experience, the church inspires faith through what appears to be a larger-than-life structure, but truly is down-to-earth in both its use of common glazing and masonry. The architect does not rely on tradition to convey this design."
