Description

The Aronoff Center for the Arts is located on the east side of Walnut between 6th and 7th Streets in downtown Cincinnati. The Aronoff Center for the Arts houses three theaters as well as the Alice and Harris Weston Art Gallery. "Performance spaces and their lobbies have a civic scale and are contained between very large masonry walls of brick and stone. A metal-frame grid of stone and glass enclose the secondary programmatic elements. The brick and stone masonry and metal-frame with infill panels respond to the building traditions and materials of Cincinnati" - http://www.cesar-pelli.com/textOnly/projects.cfm Keywords: United States, Ohio, Hamilton County, Cincinnati, exhibition buildings, exterior views, multistory buildings, mid-rise buildings (5-10 stories), performing arts structures, downtown.
