Parkway Film Center Renovation
Stavros Niarchos Foundation: Baltimore, MD
This $10M project anchors a prime corner of Baltimore’s Station North Arts District, respecting the heritage of three historic buildings while communicating the transformation of the district into a vibrant, creative, and progressive arts center. The design creates a distinct hub for the convergence of film and music with three screens, flexible meeting and exhibit space, a restaurant and bar, a lobby and concessions area, and related support spaces. To attract a broad and diverse audience, the theater’s interior was restored with a delicate hand to help highlight the authentic character of the arts district. The overall goal of the project was to celebrate the rejuvenated buildings while complying with Maryland Historic Trust and other historic guidelines.
