Why a Castle?
Why Choose Concrete?
Concrete at its best can resemble the limestone castles and universities of Europe. The St. Mary Sisters are educators and followers of an 800 year-old way of life making it fitting for them to choose their design from antiquity.
Advantages of Concrete:
Assembled in a few days
Economic materials
Lower heating and cooling costs
Minimal maintenance required
Durable structure
Sound-proof
Fire-proof
Great Look
Taracon PreCast Walls
The St. Mary Sisters are eager to get a larger convent because more women will join their ranks in service of educating the young starting in North Dakota!
What are Precast Walls?
Below is a sample of a precast exterior wall of the St. Joseph Convent. Precast walls are made by pouring concrete into large molds offsite. After all the pieces are made, they are brought in and assembled onsite.
