Highlighted Experience
 Pabst Theater
The Pabst Theater was rapidly built on the ashes of the Stadt Theatre and reopened on November 9, 1895. The theater's design was considered one of the most innovative of its time: its T-bar counter-weight system was the basis for modern scenery rigging and its cantilevered balconies, which eliminated sight blocking columns, were among the first of their kind. It also was the first "fireproof" theater. View Full Project
 Northwestern Mutual Restoration Project
Phase 1 of the Northwestern Mutual Restoration project acted as a mock-up for the much larger portion of the exterior restoration project. Phase 2 began in January 2009 with the work consisting primarily of removing damaged portions of the building’s exterior, restoring and then replacing those pieces. The building’s facade is made of Harwich white granite and was originally constructed in 1914. View Full Project
