As a part of a downtown-wide restoration project, Thomas Douglas Architects was tapped to design a restoration of this multi screen movie house into a modern performing arts complex. Originally designed as a 1,000-seat vaudeville and single screen movie house, the theater has been cut up into a multitude of small-unadorned spaces. The Thomas Douglas Architects design envisioned a restoration of the decorative theatrical auditorium featuring a painted surround of a colonial Greenfield downtown street scene complete with twinkling starts in the night sky.
The project received full funding from a variety of sources including New Market Tax credits and State and Federal Historic tax credits.
