Radio City Music Hall — Renovations and Historical Restoration, New York, NY
Radio City’s interior was restored in authentic detail, including each of the 5,091 seats, the carpeting, wallpaper, lighting fixtures, millwork, and architectural finishes. The entire third mezzanine was strategically tilted forward to avoid echoing.
