Here’s a time lapse video from our webcam showing the progress on the Vukovich Center for Communication Arts. The 40,000-square-foot complex will include rehearsal and instructional areas, video production facilities, and a large performance space for hosting public events. The building will also have a “garden roof” of grass, ground cover, and trees. This will contribute not only to the beauty of the building but to the goal of making it a highly energy efficient structure.
To develop a state-of-the-art center that will be virtually unequaled among Allegheny’s peer schools, the College has chosen the world-renowned architectural firm Polshek Partnership, LLP, for the project. Polshek is considered to be among the top architectural firms for this type of facility. Among their credits are the Santa Fe Opera, the New York City Planetarium, the Clinton Presidential Library and the Ed Sullivan Theater restoration and conversion. They are also responsible for the Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center restorations.
The center is named in honor of Allegheny trustee Robert A. Vukovich ‘65 and his wife, Laura J. Vukovich. A portion of the Vukoviches’ $22.2 million gift to Allegheny will be used to fund the center. The College also received support for the project from several other generous donors, including alumni, friends, and foundations. In addition, Pennsylvania Governor Edward Rendell announced during an August visit to the College that the Commonwealth would provide $4 million for the Center through the Redevelopment istance Capital Program.
