NenaE Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah... it needs a good wash. Has that recessed lighting feature always been there, on the Alley Theater? I never noticed it. I really like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate99 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 They have started installing the structure of the new fly loft. Steel beams are now sticking way up above the old roofline. If it stops raining, I'll take a pic next time I am out there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's patina - sorta like how copper turns green over time. It must be preserved to maintain the building's Brutalist authenticity. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
