Exeter Street Theater

Boston, MA

Hartwell and Richardson designed the Exeter Street Theater in the 1880's as Boston's first Spiritualist Temple. The building envelope consists of brownstone walls, a slate roof, and copper flashing. In 1995, a fire severely damaged the theater. Within twenty-four hours, SGH assessed the damage, developed a stabilization program, and began remedial design. The project received awards from the National Council of Structural Engineering Association; International Masonry Institute; and Associated General Contractors Massachusetts Chapter.
