A pop of warm color against the rolling green hills of Jefferson County, the City of Festus’s Red Barn is a testament to the region’s agricultural roots. Originally used for community events, the City had to stop using the Red Barn as a public space because of structural, life safety, and accessibility concerns.
For years, the Barn sat empty while problems with the roof and building envelope put the building at risk of further decline. After ARPA funds became available for stabilizing the Barn’s structure, Bond Architects was retained by the city to address life safety requirements, improve accessibility, and upgrade lighting.
With the Red Barn’s rustic charm being its major selling point, authenticity was a top priority. Because we wanted to preserve as much of the original barn as possible, our master plan focused on building around the barn instead of altering the existing structure.
To create more useable space, a deck was constructed around the barn in lieu of an addition. The deck connects to a new ADA ramp, creating a universally accessible main entry to the second-floor event space. A new concrete parking pad, adjacent to the ADA ramp, also improves accessibility.
