University of Cincinnati, College Conservatory of Music

Planning for new facilities for the College Conservatory of Music began in 1992 with an analysis of needs, site relationships, and possibilities for reuse of existing spaces. A building project totaling of 285,000 square feet - 148,000 new and 138,000 renovated - was executed in six phases over seven years. The completed project includes a 740-seat multipurpose space, 300-seat recital hall, 150-seat studio theatre, rehearsal space, studios, and support spaces.
