In a massive effort to revitalize 22 acres of downtown Long Beach, the city and the Port of Long Beach took an innovative path to meet the area’s ambitious development goals with the Long Beach Civic Center, ENR’s 2020 Project of the Year for Southern California.
Located at the center of a densely populated and active campus, the 30,000-sq-ft Burbank Auditorium was completely transformed from the inside out, providing significant upgrades to circulation, interior design, technology, building systems, seismic and theatrical production systems while also incorporating a 5,000-sq-ft addition.
