Show time for Public Theater’s $35M renovation project

The Public Theater is off and running with its $35 million renovation of the non-profit organization’s landmark 19th-century building at 425 Lafayette Street. Construction broke ground today, and plans — by Polshek Partnership Architects — call for an expanded lobby, a façade restoration and a new lounge, among other upgrades. The theater company, which will continue to offer programs in two of its theaters while construction is ongoing, announced at the groundbreaking that it has raised $28 million of the $35 million necessary to complete the project.
