Quantum Consulting Engineers provided the structural design to renovate the Ed Erickson Theatre Off-Broadway at Seattle Central Community College. The renovation plan merged the lobby, stage and seating areas, and introduced operable curtains so that not only an inside audience may watch the performance, but also viewers on the street through the theatre’s main window.Specific renovation plans for the modern warehouse-style space included excavation of the existing slab-on-grade to provide an additional 6’ of headroom to improve sight lines, underpinning of an existing exterior concrete wall, new entry/marquee, new suspended control room, and additional seating for 40 people.

The project received an AIA Seattle Honor Awards Citation.
