1930s Gothic church in Concord to become condos under plan

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - New plans call for turning a 1930s Concord church into residential condominiums.

Developer Jon Chorlian outlined his plans for the historic Sacred Heart Church to the Concord Monitor (https://bit.ly/1XV6mgK ) last week.

Chorlian has signed a purchase-and-sales agreement to buy the Catholic church, which was founded and built by the city’s French-speaking community. Ten residential condos would be offered at $300,000 to $400,000. They would have three bedrooms and range between 1,750 and 2,000 square feet.

Architectural details from the Gothic church are expected to be incorporated into the design. Some units will feature exposed vaulted ceilings and stone window frames. Some stained glass windows will also stay.

Chorlian still needs zoning and planning board approval. He hopes to close the sale on July 1, with construction to start this summer.
