The Gary Comer Youth Center, located on the South Side of
Chicago, holds an activity, performance and education center for
area youth. At its core, lies a gymnasium where the South Shore Drill
Team practices and performs. Flexible, the gym quickly converts to a
600-seat theatre with an 80-foot wide by 30-foot deep stage. The
facility also includes music and band rooms, a small recording suite,
classrooms and offices. Energy conservation and "green" features
include skylights which draw natural light into the
gymnasium/theatre; and a courtyard roof garden hosting plants and
vegetation. Kirkegaard’s scope of work focused on room acoustics
and mechanical noise control in the sound sensitive spaces.
