The Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts designed by Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects will be a 184,000 square foot facility and will house studios, classrooms, and exhibition space for the visual arts. Also included are rehearsal and shop areas, a black-box theater space for theatrical production and performance-related teaching along with individual music practice and ensemble rehearsal rooms, multi-purpose performance space, a film vault and a lecture/film screening hall, computer and editing labs and state-of-the-art media classrooms. The main floor offers performance spaces including a 450-seat auditorium, a 120-seat theater, and a black box theater, as well as a 2,000 square foot exhibition space.
The overall building will feature an 11-story tower and an adjacent building filled with performance and teaching spaces. Two outdoor spaces, a balcony, and a seminar room will accompany the penthouse and offer views of downtown and Lake Michigan. Studios, practice space, and set shops will occupy a large part of the remaining space in both of the buildings. The project site is located at the existing University of Chicago Hyde Park Campus in a dense residential neighborhood with more than 4,000 undergraduates and over 9,000 postgraduate students enrolled at this University. The new building will aim for LEED silver certification, with three green roofs visible to high-rise neighbors overlooking the facility.
