Radnor Property Group was retained as the development manager of two historic redevelopment projects on the King’s College campus. Combined, these projects totaled over 28,000 square feet. The Chapel provided for a new multi-purpose assembly and community center where the College can offer programming and events for students and the community at large.

This historic redevelopment included core & shell improvements to both buildings, classroom and laboratory fit-out in Spring Brook and the development of ancillary support areas to utilize Memorial as a multi-purpose event space. Utilizing Federal Historic Tax Credits, New Markets Tax Credits for both projects and multiple state grants for Spring Brook, Radnor assisted King’s in their mission to expand academic opportunities and continue to invest in the community. Construction commenced in mid 2017 and was completed in 2019.
