Holy Name Cathedral prepares to reopen following months of extensive renovation after a fire closed the cathedral in February. Some of the many repairs included remaking plaster caps atop marble columns following water damage, refinishing all of the pews and the 25,000 pieces of wood on the ceiling and trimming gold-leaf accents.
