The craftsmen carefully removed each piece of copper and cataloged them in relation to where they were removed from on the spire and roof. Each new piece was then replicated in the exact size and shape as the original by hand. As a result, the restored spire has the same quality and workmanship as the original that was installed back in the early 1900s.”
