Exterior Restoration

In 2003-2004 various projects took place to focus on the exterior of the Shea's Theatre. Some of this work included the installation of the Shea's Buffalo blade sign that was original to the building and exterior facade enhancements.

The exterior restoration of Shea's Buffalo Theatre required innovative solutions to address structural issues, including problems caused by wind exposure. Instead of using the original glazed terracotta bricks, an approved substitute material—Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC)—was employed. This modern material not only preserved the historic aesthetic of the theater but also provided enhanced durability.
