Awards Banquet — Union Ballroom
210 at dinner, laid out around four structural columns rather than through them.
Kestrel University — Whitlock Memorial Union · Union Ballroom · 128′ × 80′, 22′ ceiling
Why it is laid out this way
- The rounds sit in the quadrants the four columns define — the two tables a plain grid would have put on a column are simply not in the plan.
- The house LED wall is the backdrop and the stage is 12′ deep in front of it, so nothing is trucked in to build a set the building already has.
- All three south door pairs keep their egress landing with a back row of rounds 11′ away.
