On the site of the former Bethlehem Steel Turn and Grind Shop, ArtsQuest and PBS 39 are developing a 21st
century town square where history, culture, education and the arts will intersect with technology and celebration.
Acoustic Dimensions is working with Spillman Farmer Architects on a four-story Performing Arts building which will
include a 530 seat cabaret style music venue, a 4,000 sf community room and a two screen art cinema. The group
is planning to break ground on the performing arts center this fall to pen by May 2011. This unique development
will be constructed on the largest privately-owned brown field in the U.S., contributing to their pursuit of LEED
Silver certification.
