I'VE BEEN OUT OF THE LOOP - But not out of touch.
That’s my sneakered foot up there. I spent the last 3 months - about 65 feet up in the air - as the color expert on a major restoration project in Syracuse NY. I was part of a team restoring the historic ‘Landmark Theater’. We just finished and it looks spectacular.
God blessed me this summer with that tremendous contract - which pretty much made up for years of stagnation. Back in May, I was on the phone being prayed for by a tremendous saint, and good friend - pastor Keith Ver Steegh, of The Gifts of the Spirit Ministries Fellowship, of Iowa. He prayed for me - and prophesied that the Lord was about to bless me marvelously, and things were going to become suddenly easier for me. Well, he nailed it. I don’t want to go into detail here, but that prophesy came to pass in amazing ways.
I have not had time to write much, but I keep praying and keep studying, and the last few months the Lord has shown me tremendous things., which I WILL Get to sharing in the days ahead. I’m blue & black from pinching myself from all the goodness, and the revelations.
Please stay tuned.. and blessed.
Yours in Christ Jesus -
Victoria
Wow, the Landmark is a landmark. I’m honored to even know you are a part of the restoration . Thank you for the update.
How wonderful for you to have been blessed with this. Many have been praying for you, but certainly not to the extent pastor Keith Ver Steegh did.
So I searched to see what news there might be concerning the restoration, and clicked on the Syracuse .com site as they'd written a previous and favorable story about your work, but nothing in the story about your efforts, and though plenty of pictures none I could identify you in, and there were plenty of people mostly men , one possible but to hard to tell.
So I did a search Victoria Bingham Syracuse landmark theatre restoration 2025, and the first hit https://centralcurrent.org/sean-kirst-a-half-century-after-the-landmark-theatre-was-almost-lost-syracuse-will-see-it-again-in-its-true-colors/
An excerpt from the Beginning:
At the Landmark Theater, Victoria Bingham and Jamie Williams are both confident about that. Central New Yorkers long familiar with downtown’s grand old theater will experience its central auditorium in a different and more soulful way once it reopens in September, after months of restoration.
For the first time in almost a century, the audience will see that great hall in its true colors.
Bingham and Andre Kouznetsov are longtime artists and business partners from Fayetteville, where they restored and operate a bed and breakfast, the Iron Lion Inn. Joined by their son Nikolai, they are part of a skilled crew working for John Tiedemann, an architectural conservation specialist from New Jersey. The goal is restoring the original color scheme for much of the walls, ceiling and wildly elaborate ornamentation that dominate the great theater hall, first opened as a Loew’s movie house.
The other post but not really a story just some blurbs under the pictures.
