HBI Projects

Completed Projects

St. George Cathedral, East Broadway, South Boston

HBI awarded a Steeples Project grant to the congregation in 1997 for a comprehensive building survey, which was followed in 1999 by a major repairs grant to address structural and masonry work on the East Broadway façade and steeple, repairs to the roof, gutters, and chimneys, as well as window and door restoration. Since then the congregation has performed extensive repairs to the massive roof and the areas around the clerestory windows and, in 2008, installed decorative lighting to the exterior of the building, funded in part by HBI's Steeples Program. The cathedral serves as the national center of the Albanian Orthodox Church and is heavily involved in cultural, educational and charitable activities both in South Boston and the Balkans.
