Designed by Thomas Lamb as a vaudeville palace, the restored
1928 Opera House theatre stands as one of the nation’s
finest in opulence, gilt, and quality of detailing. At
the end of the 1990s, after a decade of neglect and
deterioration, the Opera House was in a perilous state of
disrepair. A restoration team of architects, engineers, contractors,
and artisans set about bringing this jewel back to life. In
addition to re-establishing structural integrity and constructing
modern stage housing, the team restored the Outer Lobby, Grand
Foyer, Memorial Hall, and theatre space to their original splendor.
