Notes

Window that surrounds stained glass panel was damaged during 2025 Netflix shooting of The Diplomat. The stained glass itself was not damaged. This necessitated the removal of the entire window to fix the broken glass. Stained glass will be cleaned, window will be releaded as lead was determined to be nearing the end of its life anyway. This window will serve as an example for future potential funders, as we are interested in having the entire stained glass collection assessed and treated as necessary.
