Lifepath Christian Ministries

Wagman Construction will complete an adaptive reuse project for faith-based nonprofit LifePath Christian Ministries in York, PA, transforming a vacant historic industrial building into a modern campus designed to support individuals and families in need. Formerly home to the Pewtarex foundry, the three-story building will be preserved and renovated alongside thoughtfully integrated new construction, giving new purpose to a longtime York property.

The completed facility will bring several of LifePath’s essential services and functions together under one roof, including office space, a chapel, a full-service kitchen and dining room, and separate men’s and women’s shelters. Designed to support a more coordinated system of care, the new campus will provide individuals experiencing homelessness with access to shelter, resources, and support services in a welcoming environment centered on dignity, safety, and hospitality.

Construction includes interior and exterior masonry restoration, new sprinkler and MEP systems, updated interior finishes, and site improvements to support the building’s new use. Located within York’s Historical Architectural Review Board (HARB) district, the work will balance the needs of a modern, community-focused facility with the preservation of the building’s historic character.
