Aloi Severs a Connection to the Past – Chandelier’s New Electric Hoist is a Highlight of Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre Renovation


ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- How do you take a 2.5 ton chandelier with 20,000 pieces of ornate glass; cut the cable that has held it in place for 87 years; and replace it with an automated lifting and lowering system for cleaning and maintenance?


“We couldn’t have been more honored to play a behind the scenes role in the concert hall’s renovation,” Gambrill said."The president expects that we will finish financial reform in the next couple of months, certainly by the time we mark the second anniversary of the financial collapse in the early fall," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said.“The new hoist system worked just as we knew it would,” Gambrill said. “The chandelier didn’t budge, not even a tiny nudge.”Wolin's remarks -- and a White House meeting between President Barack Obama and leading administration and congressional authors of the regulatory overhaul -- signaled a new determination to make reining in Wall Street the next presidential priority.As Jeff Gambrill will tell you: “you need to handle it very gently, using only expert craftsmen, and, just in case, have lots of liability insurance.”The Strip has pulled together a “Dream Team” of entertainment that will create the buzz and define the Strip.
