Preserving a New Hope Landmark

The Bucks County Playhouse, originally built as a grist mill in 1790, underwent an extensive renovation by J.R. Maxwell Builders from 2010 to 2012. Jay, James, and the team worked to modernize the structure while preserving the character and significance of this New Hope landmark. The project included a new roof, structural upgrades, refinished flooring, improved ramps and entryways, and renovations to the box office, restrooms, offices, and dressing rooms. In 2013, J.R. Maxwell Builders received the Pennsylvania Historic Preservation Award for its work on the Bucks County Playhouse.
