COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The Air Force Academy chapel is one of the most distinctive pieces of architecture in Colorado.
But few people have caught a glimpse of it for more than a year. That’s because the entire building is undergoing an exhaustive restoration inside a 14-story “cocoon.”
And it’s not likely to emerge any time soon.
The more than $150 million renovation of the Cadet Chapel at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs is going to take months — or perhaps more than a year, longer than originally expected; contractors are contending with more asbestos than they expected, as well as other unforeseen challenges.
