LaGuardia Airport, located in East Elmhurst, Queens, New York City, began operations in 1939 and is one of the busiest airports in the United States. From 2016 to 2022, its Terminal B underwent a $5.1 billion redevelopment, the largest public-private partnership in U.S. aviation history.

Grand Light was contacted for the restoration of multiple types of historic exterior wall lanterns at LaGuardia's Terminal B. The brass fixtures featured a verde patina finish that our artisans carefully conserved through cleaning, hand-applied localized patina repairs, and protective top coat applications.

The lanterns had missing decorative lens holders, which were replaced with new components fabricated in-house using our Bridgeport milling machine. Each fixture was fully rewired with UL-listed components, upgrading their uplight and downlight configurations with high-output bulbs.

Now restored and back on display at LaGuardia Airport, these historic lanterns once again illuminate the façade of Terminal B, preserving its character while providing improved lighting for the next generation of travelers.

Completed in 1930 and named for its benefactor, John William Sterling, Sterling Memorial Library is one of Yale University's most prominent buildings and the largest library on campus. It currently houses approximately 4 million volumes across 16 floors of book stacks.

Grand Light restored a range of historic chandeliers, sconces, and ceiling fixtures for the Sterling Memorial Library's Linonia & Brothers Reading Room. Research showed that many of these were original early 20th century fixtures from renowned lighting manufacturer E.F. Caldwell & Co.

The fixtures were fully rewired, many of which having received a personally customized LED retrofit kit. Each chandelier received a new GU10 LED uplight configuration on alternating arms, while multiple ceiling fixtures were retrofitted with one of our custom-mounted Integrated/Dedicated LED disc driver kits for additional dimmable accent lighting and quality lumen output with far less energy consumed. Most fixtures were able to have their original finishes conserved through cleaning and metal waxing, while others were surface prepared and refinished.

It was a pleasure to contribute to the preservation of Yale's history through this award-winning project. Congratulations to Yale University on another successful renovation!

Lambert Castle, originally called Belle Vista, was completed in 1892 and is located atop the Garret Mountain Reservation in Paterson, New Jersey. The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 for its significance in art, architecture, and industry.

Grand Light restored a large collection of historic light fixtures at Lambert Castle, including chandeliers, ceiling lights, pendants, and post lights. The ornate metalwork on each fixture was carefully cleaned and refinished, with metal components ground and polished using a grinding wheel. Unique, handcrafted diffusers and crystal components were meticulously cleaned and restored, and replaced where necessary. Once their aesthetics were restored, the luminaires were fully rewired with UL-listed electrical components and HIPOT tested.

Now restored and reinstalled, we're thrilled to help preserve the historic and artistic significance of these fixtures and Lambert Castle for generations to come.

Surface preparation is the first step in restoring these historic bronze wall sconces.

After preliminary inspection, documentation, and disassembly, our artisans began the surface restoration. Each component was carefully blasted with low-pressure media, then hand-cleaned with silver polish to reveal the original silver-plated finish. The plating was removed through higher-pressure media blasting in preparation for refinishing.

Stay tuned as our artisans enter the finishing phase of the restoration, including patination, burnishing, and lacquering.

The Kings Theatre is a live performance venue in Brooklyn, New York City. Kings opened in 1929 as a movie palace and closed in 1977. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012 and reopened to the public in 2015.

Grand Light's restoration team traveled to the Kings Theatre to modify numerous large pendant fixtures. Our on-site team removed one of each fixture type to serve as a mock-up at Grand Light's restoration facility. Our engineers took precise measurements and prepared detailed drawings for the fabrication of new, durable, dual-frosted acrylic diffusers. The panels were carefully hand-painted with gold accents to replicate the original aesthetic.

Once the mock-ups were approved, our artisans returned to the site to implement the modifications, including adding a protective sheath to the wiring harnesses, correcting mechanical and decorative deficiencies, and fitting the replicated acrylic diffusers.

Grand Light performed all modifications on-site in just under three days during a holiday recess, avoiding any disruption to the theatre’s scheduled performances and operations.

Grand Light's team of artisans recently returned to the site of Loew's Jersey Theatre to deliver the restored, ornate light fixtures and assist with their reinstallation.

Our team worked diligently to assemble and install several iconic fixtures, including the centerpiece of the auditorium, a 16-foot-tall, six-armed crystal chandelier. Each fixture was carefully restored to faithfully reflect its original design and preserve the historic aesthetic of the theatre.

We're looking forward to the grand reopening of Loew's Jersey Theatre later this fall, when these restored pieces of history will once again take center stage! Stay tuned for the next wave of installations, featuring custom reproductions of historic fixtures.

Cornell University Law School’s Hughes Hall was originally designed by famed New York architectural firm Eggers & Higgins and constructed in 1963. The building recently underwent a renovation that earned it a LEED® Gold Rating from the U.S. Green Building Council.

Grand Light restored and replicated multiple types of historic exterior wall fixtures for Hughes Hall. The fixtures restored as part of this project were original early-20th-century productions by renowned lighting designer E.F. Caldwell.

We used our Industrial Caliber CNC Waterjet Cutter to accurately replicate damaged and missing mechanical components and glass diffusers. The existing and replicated parts were refinished in black, and the fixtures were rewired with traditional base sockets to accommodate screw-in LED lamps.

Now reinstalled, these fixtures will provide historic character and energy-efficient illumination at Cornell University for decades to come!

Grand Light is in the final stages of a massive restoration project, which means it’s time to pack things up, travel on-site and get these beauties installed.

Each fixture was carefully packed, with the centerpiece chandelier’s inner frame receiving a custom-built crate to ship it safely and efficiently. Stay tuned over the following weeks for a full in-depth analysis as this multi-year restoration comes to a close!

The iconic Lansdowne Theater in Lansdowne, PA, opened on June 1, 1927, and served primarily as a movie house while occasionally hosting live performances. An electrical fire in 1987 forced the theater to shut down for decades until it was purchased for restoration in 2007. After an 18-year effort, Lansdowne Theater is open to the public once again.

Grand Light was recruited by the Lansdowne restoration team to restore the theater's historic light fixtures. The scope included the restoration of a variety of chandeliers, pendants, and ceiling fixtures, originally produced nearly a century ago by esteemed lighting designer Joseph E. Frechie & Co.

The project began with our artisans removing and transporting the fixtures to our factory, where they were carefully disassembled for restoration. Each luminaire was meticulously refinished to preserve its historic aesthetic and design.

The most ambitious piece of this restoration was the massive, eye-catching centerpiece chandelier. This complex luminaire received new replica glass panels, their designs meticulously replicated by our artisans, and was completely rewired with a far more efficient configuration to handle their six circuits and 244 sockets. The job concluded with our artisans returning on-site to deliver the restored fixtures and assist with their reinstallation.

Congrats to the Lansdowne Theater and Save the Lansdowne Theater for accomplishing this ambitious, award-winning restoration. It was a pleasure collaborating on the preservation of history!
