MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE
The Mallory-Neely Museum is one of Memphis' finest Victorian
landmarks. Its rich interiors, including furniture, original wool
carpets, decorative wall finishes and murals survived several generations
but required extensive restoration and conservation. Williamson
Pounders Architects prepared documents for a phased approach to the
restoration including new mechanical systems for humidity control,
restoration of deteriorated decorative plaster and murals, extensive
structural repairs, and restoration of the exterior envelope.
Windows were fitted with ultra violet protection, slate roofs repaired,
and decorative metal trim removed and repaired as part of the improvement
scheme.
