Sophia & Jack Bender Memorial Chapel

The Design-Build team of Butler-Cohen and Gensler was hired to provide all design and construction services for a new 6,000-squarefoot chapel, commissioned by the Bender siblings to honor their late parents. The chapel is located on the site of the existing Beth Yeshurun Cemetery in West Houston. The minimalist exterior and airy, light-filled interior provide families and friends a comfortable space to reflect and celebrate the lives of their loved ones. The project is the recipient of multiple awards, including the 2021 Best Projects Award of Merit from Engineering News-Record in the Cultural/Worship category.
