Carey & Co. Inc.

First Unitarian Church
Oakland, California

The First Unitarian Church, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was the largest building in the city at the time of its construction in 1891. Carey & Co. Inc. performed technical work on the historic aspects of this building, primarily analyzing the stucco and masonry and character-defining features of the original design to ensure that these areas were not impacted by the new construction.The resulting addition and courtyard modification are a successful example of integrating new construction into historic buildings.
