The UPPERROOM Cedars Campus project involves renovating and restoring a warehouse in Dallas’s Cedars District. Phase 1 includes converting the largest open space into a state-of-the-art Prayer Room with a sustainable cross laminated timber mezzanine, theater-style prayer set curtains, a retractable glazing wall, and a loud, vibrant A/V system to match the UPPERROOM worship energy. The prayer room connects to a support building which houses childcare facilities, youth outreach areas, admin offices, and congregation amenities. The church front features Hands + Rose, the church’s own coffee shop with new equipment, finishes, and a mural wall connecting to main spaces. Adjacent is the exterior space: Outdoor Room, a gathering place with a baptismal font and mass timber canopy, the first of its kind in Dallas. Phase I focuses on worship and support, while Phase II, across Wall Street, will emphasize teaching, outreach, mentoring, and administration to attract a new generation.
