Stage to design the conversion of the landmark 1891 Armory Building in
the Pearl District of Portland, OR, into a new home for PCS. Along with
the 600 seat Bob and Diana Gerding Theatre and the 200 seat flexible Studio
Theatre, the Armory contains a costume shop, props, dye and crafts areas,
dressing rooms and a rehearsal room as well as offices and meeting space
for PCS.The Armory Building became the first performing arts facility and the first historic renovation to earn a LEED Platinum rating for sustainable design from the U.S. Green Building Council.
