This project included the build-out of a new 35,000-square-foot event center capable of seating 2,500 spectators, a stage with lighting and sound system for upcoming concerts. The event center also houses a ballroom that can be modified to fit different meeting space needs. The scope also included a banquet kitchen to support up to 2,500 event center guests. A 40,000-square-foot interior renovation was completed for back-of-house administrative support offices. Additional infrastructure and equipment for the central utilities plant were also a part of the project scope.
