Severud Associates engineered renovations to this 1962 Eero Saarinen design that included the addition of a permanent floor at the stage trap level and an easily removable intermediate level; the new design accommodates diverse configurations. The orchestra pit was enlarged and new grid iron framing added. Existing concrete shear walls were cut to allow expansion of the lobby.
