Adaptively reusing a former school auditorium from the 1940’s, this two-level 50-seat restaurant maintains its orientation, but replaces the stage with a large window wall for views to the adjacent landscape. Existing windows, skylights, and fireplace are retained, while a new split-level kitchen and mechanical upgrades allow it to reposition itself as a renewed community asset.
