Brooklyn Tabernacle

Renovation of Loews Metropolitan Theatre

Brooklyn, NY USA

Vibrant worship in a historic theatre in the heart of Brooklyn.

Brooklyn Tabernacle is well-known for its Grammy-award winning choir. It's also famous for connecting with people from all walks of life.

We worked with Brooklyn Tabernacle back in 2002 when they first restored the Loews Metropolitan Theatre in the heart of Brooklyn as their new home. Completed in 1918, the theatre had once been the largest theatre for live performance in North America; however, as with many of the vaudeville theatres, it fell into disrepair. The church lovingly restored the space and gave it vibrant new life connecting with crowds of people and healing lives through teaching, community, and music.

Idibri provided acoustics, technology, and theatrical consulting for Brooklyn Tabernacle's updates to the main sanctuary in 2020 and construction of children's spaces.
