The $25.8 million project, which is scheduled to open in spring 2011, will stand four stories tall and have glass walls, giving everyone inside full view of the old Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces. Inside, the center will offer patrons an array of cinema and musical venues.
"It will greatly improve the quality of life by bringing entertainment to the community and exposing local residents to the arts," Rendell said. "Facilities like this add to the quality of life in the region and can help attract other job-creating businesses in the community."
The Performing Arts Center will include a community events facility called the Blast Furnace Room and two digital screen arts cinemas -- one with 100 seats and one with 200 seats -- that will be one of the few in the state where people can drink alcohol while watching art-house films.
The center also will include the 600-seat Musikfest Cafe, where 280 concerts a year will feature the kind of world music, jazz, folk, blues, bluegrass, gospel, country, adult alternative, R&B and new age music often found at Musikfest's free stages.
Next spring, PBS-39 is expected to break ground at a new broadcast center at SteelStacks.
SteelStacks is part of a larger plan to redevelop the former Bethlehem Steel plant, which stopped making steel there 14 years ago.
