unity spiritual center

The Unity Spiritual Center of Lansing was formed at the beginning of 2016 from the merging of two earlier churches, Unity of Greater Lansing and Unity Spiritual Renaissance; however, its roots go back much further, to 1934. Over the decades, the group has met at a variety of locations in the Lansing area. The current location at 230 S. Holmes Street has been occupied by Unity Spiritual Center of Lansing since around the time of its formation.
​With a desire to more effectively carry out its mission of “advancing the Unity movement that calls us to awaken to our oneness with God, each other and all creation,” Unity Spiritual Center of Lansing has embarked on a plan to renovate and expand the current facilities. An expansion of both the basement and main floor is desired, as well as renovation work within the existing building.

PHASE I:

Through proficient problem-solving, Consultant will provide design that meets ADA policy. In close coordination with Owner, Consultant will develop construction details and layouts for the proposed renovation. Consultant will design the layout to include ADA-compliant bathroom facilities and upgrades, dedicated office space, dedicated meeting/class room facilities, and possibly a utility room. Consultant will design ceilings in accordance with Owner’s desires and structural dictates. Consultant will review with Owner to confirm specific functions, space needs, goals, and desires for the proposed addition and proposed renovations to the existing structure. Design plans will be incorporated into the agreement for this project.
