This concept for Winspear Center for Music , is composed of three main components:
1. The Winspear Expansion which will create a multi-level addition to the current facilities adding a 500-plus-seat acoustically superb public performance venue, a series of rehearsal/teaching spaces and visitor engagement spaces that will promote all day - everyday use of the center.
2. A multi-storey parking structure which will be convertible to future program space.
3. A district energy plant that will provide thermal energy to neighboring buildings in the downtown core.
