Everyman Theatre
Lewis Contractors provided full preconstruction services, inclusive of forensic work, for this comprehensive restoration and renovation project. This 120,000 SF project involved the complete restoration/renovation of downtown Baltimore’s Town Theatre, which had been abandoned for years. Work included both exterior and interior restoration elements and a comprehensive rehabilitation to accommodate new functionality for the building in the form of a 250-seat theater.
The renovated Everyman Theatre features multiple performance spaces with modernized theatre audio/visual systems. A vertical addition was included for mechanical, electrical and toilet room facilities with elevator access. The project followed strict guidelines for Baltimore City Green Building Standards Certification with Sustainable building practices utilized throughout design and construction. Extreme care was taken to preserve existing historical features of the property as all work was conducted in a historically recognized building.
