Chautauqua Institution, NY – A crane has been moved to the Chautauqua Institution Amphitheater to help keep the roof from collapsing.
Heavy snow accumulation has cracked a wooden support beam and caused some roof sag in the 1893 building.
The amphitheater is not used during the winter months.
It is the venue for the Institution's lectures and concerts during the nine-week summer season.
There is no estimate yet on what it will cost for repairs.
