Performing Arts Center Project
Description
A 48,235-square-foot, 450-seat performing arts center proposed on the eastern portion of city-owned Historic Town Center Park, with expanded turf, five on-site spaces and shared parking in the Mission Place structure. Approved 4-1; actual construction still hinges on a real estate deal with the city.
Impact summary
The project would add a major cultural venue downtown, using shared parking at Mission Place and adding about 606 daily vehicle trips, with the next step being city-nonprofit land negotiations.
