Now the lecture is available to view in its entirety online.

Completed in 1879 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1975, Cincinnati’s Music Hall is among the city’s most iconic structures and a premier example of High Victorian Gothic architecture in the U.S. After many years of neglect, Music Hall underwent extensive renovations from May 2016 to October 2017 to revitalize the building and give it new life for the 21st century. The renovations were led by Perfido Weiskopf Wagstaff + Goettel as Architects of Record and Messer Construction as Construction Manager. In this iteration of the ICAA's Case Studies in New Classical & Traditional Design series, architect Andreas Lange and historic preservationist Thea Tjepkema discuss the building's history and the renovation process.
The ICAA would like to thank our Lead Sponsor for Continuing Education courses, Uberto Construction.
