Basilica reopens after renovation

New tile flooring installed inside Sacred Heart Basilica on the campus of the University of Notre Dame is shown Monday. The basilica closed for renovations Dec. 26 and reopened Monday. The renovations included the removal of carpeting and the installation of the tile in the aisles. The Rev. Peter Rocca, the basilica's rector, said the removal of the carpeting "will enhance the acoustics in the basilica and eliminate the need of replacing the carpeting every 10 to 15 years."
