Steinert Hall (est.1896) of Boston, Massachusetts, stands at no.162 Boylston Street on what was called Boston's "piano row",〔Kahn, Joseph P., ("Steinert Hall, out of use and far from sight" ), ''The Boston Globe'', December 13, 2013〕 opposite the Common in the Boston Theater District. Piano dealers M. Steinert & Sons own the building, erected in 1896 by company employee Alexander Steinert.〔M. Steinert & Sons. (Philosophy & History ). Retrieved 2012-03-20〕 Architects Winslow and Wetherell designed the "six-story limestone and brick Beaux Arts-style facade with terra-cotta ornament and a copper cornice." == Underground performance auditorium == Inside the building and four stories below ground is a concert auditorium, now closed, designed in the "Adam-style ... with fluted Corinthian pilasters separating round arches."〔 Around 1911 some considered Steinert Hall the "headquarters for the musical and artistic world of cultured Boston. Lhévinne, Josef Hofmann, Harold Bauer, Fritz Kreisler and many others have made their bows from its platform." The concert auditorium, now in ill-repair, has not been used since it was closed in 1942 due to fire code restrictions and prohibitive cost to upgrade the hall.〔 In May 2015, it was announced that the hall would be renovated in an attempt to open it again for performances. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steinert Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
