Newark Symphony Hall Unveils Design for Renovation
Newark Symphony Hall (NSH), New Jersey’s largest Black-led arts and entertainment venue, recently unveiled designs for its exterior renovation, part of a five-year, three-phase $50 million project set to wrap on the venue’s 100th birthday in 2025. The design, from Trenton, NJ-based architectural firm Clarke Caton Hintz (CCH), includes a new marquee and streetscape.
Located at 1020 Broad St. in Newark, NSH was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. In addition to restoring the building’s façade, the renovation will reimagine the city block – adding bike lanes, improved curbing, a central island and transportation access.
“With the help of historic preservation experts Clarke Caton Hintz and our wider project team, we’ll be revitalizing our corner of Broad Street while modernizing – and paying tribute to – our historic venue, an anchor institution for the city,” said Taneshia Nash Laird, president and CEO of NSH.
