Project Description
RKTB began its long-term relationship with City Center Theater on West 55th Street in 1982, when the firm embarked on the extensive renovation and adaptation of the main house. RKTB's efforts successfully converted the theater, originally built in 1924 as a Shriners Auditorium, into a 2,750-seat theater specifically for the performance of dance. Eventually the firm renovated the entire theater including offices and rehearsal spaces, created a V.I.P. space and a new side wing section which was incorporated into the space in an adjacent building.
