I am having trouble visualizing the Audience/Visitor Center and the purpose of the Audience/Visitor center.
I also am having trouble visualizing the need for 22 toilets and the mass of buildings that would require.
An Audience/Visitor Center for $1 million and stage/seating for $2 million...costs to much, in my opinion.
After looking at the plans at the library, it's pretty easy to figure out. The Audience/Visitor center consists of the same basic elements that are there now:
1) Box Office
2) Concessions
3) Audience restrooms - regular and handicapped.
4) "Flex room" - (this is new and seems to be a small office of sorts)
I think the only difference is that on the new plan the elements look to be laid out in an orderly fashion as opposed to the current haphazard arrangement. I believe the increase to 22 toilets is because that is what the building code calls for.
