The Jeff: Reborn
I am a life-long Charlottesville resident, and while this town has nurtured my love of history, architecture, and entertainment, only one building merges my interest in all three– the Jefferson Theater, which has risen almost from ashes again.
After almost three and a half years and a multi-million-dollar renovation, the building regained much if not all of its glory when it sprang back to life last November 27. It wasn't until just a few weeks ago, however, that the finishing touches– which bring it to whole new heights of entertainment-- were finally applied.
This is my story and its story.
