Capitol Theater

Fall River, MA

Civitects was retained by Alexandra’s Boutique for the restoration of the historic Capitol Theatre façade. The boutique, which is located just north of the Capitol on South Main Street in Fall River, expanded their retail operation into the 1st floor of the theatre. The preliminary design sketches revisited the original design of the building’s 1st floor storefront and 2nd floor windows. In addition to studying photographs of the theatre’s historic façade, Civitects’ schematic work was influenced by our analysis of English storefront design.
