When I read the header of the article I assumed the restoration was in big centres like Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver as opposed to such a small city which is somewhat isolated. I think it was a smart decision by the people there to do this as the article says:

"Visitors from Canada's East Coast and as far as Germany and Japan have made the trek over the years to Powell River specifically to see the theatre."
