The Opera House is getting restored!
The Litchfield Opera House is being restored! The Opera House is a community building in Litchfield listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A committee of businessmen organized in 1899 with the intention of providing a place to hold meetings and theatrical performances. It is a well-preserved example of Renaissance Revival Architecture.

In 2023 the committee that cares for and operates the Litchfield Opera house was working to keep the building protected from water damage. They had new gutters installed on the building not only to protect the foundation on the building, but to also keep water from running down the walls of the structure and deteriorating the grout in the bricks.
Gutter Shutter was Delighted to be a part of this restoration on the building. We worked closely with Connie from the board to come up with the best solution for the Opera House. We came out with our Gutter Shutter Trough and heavy-duty brackets system, to ensure we could support the gutter, capture the water and keep it moving away from the building, while making sure the gutter system was installed to ensure a long-term solution that can stand the test of time with the Opera House.
