1940 PRESENTATION No. 9 Always a horrible thought to theatre owners is that of fire. In recent years theatres have been to a great extent spared that eventuality, but the possibility is still present, even in what are constructed as strictly fireproof theatres, and in that contingency necessitate costly renovations. On these pages we present a renovation, accomplished by New York Architect Michael J. DeAngelis, and one into which the owners of the Palace Theatre, Baldwinsville, New York, were forced by the ravages of fire. In this case, however, the actual building and decorating costs were kept so low as to seem nil in comparison with the magnitude of the benefits reaped. The Renovated PALACE Baldwinsville, N. Y. Owner: S. <£ C. Theatre Corporation Architects Michael DeAngelis THE AUDITORIUM is shown here as it appeared alter its renovation. Well prepared plans and a business-like execution of them are responsible for the results obtained. Decorations, draperies, and wall fabrics have been chosen to blend harmoniously, with intermediate decorative friezes balancing the wall treatment in an effective manner.
