New Cultural Center
McLaren Engineering Group is providing structural engineering services on the $130 million New Cultural Center in downtown Columbia, MD that will serve as both a visual arts and cultural hub for the city.
The mixed-use arts facility will include a dinner theater, two black box theaters, a cantilevered dance studio, artist studios, classrooms, landscaped terraces, and event spaces. The center will also provide over 200 affordable housing units and over 700 parking spaces in a new garage, integral to the building’s footprint.
