Theatre was built in 1924 to plans by architect Joseph-Raoul Gari\u00e9py. The interior design was entrusted to decorator Emmanuel Briffa. Originally, in addition to the cinema, the Rialto included stores on the ground floor, a ballroom and reception hall, and a rooftop garden patio.<\/p>\n<p>In the early 20th century, more and more movie \u201cpalaces\u201d were being built downtown and in Montreal\u2019s neighbourhoods. This meant that they were increasingly in competition with each other. The Rialto was not immune to the phenomenon, and it changed hands several times. The cinema finally closed in 1983: various projects were proposed and the venue saw various incarnations until 2010 including stores, a theatre, a disco and a restaurant\/nightclub, none of which was ultimately successful. Over the years, the original marquee and storefronts underwent changes.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\n\t<section class=\"single-big-col\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-sm-10 offset-sm-1 col-lg-8 offset-lg-2 col-xl-6 offset-xl-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"title\">Context and intervention<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"subtitle\"><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>During his years as a university student, Ezio Carosielli would admire the Rialto every day while riding the bus to and from classes. Nearly 30 years later, in 2010, he learned that the theatre was up for sale: he toured the building with the then owner, and immediately committed to purchasing it. Restoration work was conducted over several years under the supervision of architect Pierre Beaupr\u00e9. The artificial-stone fa\u00e7ade was renewed, 450 new seats were installed in the balcony, and wood accents as well as the spectacular stained-glass dome were also restored to their former grandeur.<\/p>\n<p>During the work, the theatre remained open to the public. It continues to operate as a cultural venue<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\n\t<section class=\"single-big-col\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-sm-10 offset-sm-1 col-lg-8 offset-lg-2 col-xl-6 offset-xl-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"title\">Impact<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"subtitle\"><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The key to the successful repurposing of the Rialto Theatre was maintaining the beauty of the premises.

business model of the private company that runs the Rialto guaranteed the sustainability of the venue: to finance the renovation and restoration work, the owner leased the theatre and other spaces rather than relying solely on subsidies.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\n\t<section class=\"single-big-col\">\n\t\t<div
