Hobby Center for the Performing Arts

The Hobby Center for the Performing Arts is a theater in Houston, Texas, United States. Opened to the public in 2002, the theater is located downtown on the edge of the Houston Theater District. Hobby Center features 60-foot-high (18 m) glass walls with views of Houston's skyscrapers, Tranquility Park and Houston City Hall. The Hobby Center is named for former Texas lieutenant governor and Houston businessman, William P. Hobby, Jr., whose family foundation donated the naming gift for the center. The center replaced the former Houston Music Hall and Sam Houston Coliseum. Built by the general contractor Lyda Swinerton, it was designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA) and Morris Architects. RAMSA was inspired by legendary theater designers Herts & Tallant, who practiced in Manhattan during the early 20th century. The major building materials are limestone, brick, painted steel columns, glazed curtain wall, and standing seam metal roof. Two theaters in the center were constructed specifically for theatre and musical performances. Sarofim Hall, a 2,650-seat theater acoustically designed for touring Broadway productions like Phantom Of The Opera, Les Misérables, Wicked, The Lion King, and Hamilton. The theater is home to Theatre Under the Stars. Golden latticework surrounds the hall, while multistoried, gold-leaf columns contrast with midnight blue walls. The Joe and Lee Jamail Celestial Dome Ceiling features twinkling fiber optic stars that replicate the Texas night sky. The theater has three tiers: orchestra, mezzanine, and upper gallery. Zilkha Hall, jewel box 500-seat hall showcases the ensembles of the Uniquely Houston program, the only performing arts series of its kind in the country. The series fosters artistic and administrative growth for smaller and midsized performing arts groups in the Houston metropolitan area. They include the Psophonia Dance Company, the Maggini String Orchestra, and Ars Lyrica Houston, to name but three. Two significant works of art were commissioned for the center. American painter Sol LeWitt's mural "Wall Drawing 2002" serves as the focal point of the Grand Lobby. British-born sculptor Tony Cragg's two-part bronze "In Minds" mimics human profiles outside at Hines Plaza. References External links Hobby Center website Valdés, Ernesto (2011).

The upper floors were clad with dark bricks and decorated with piers and pilasters. The Union National Bank Building featured modern conveniences such as an air conditioning system and three elevators. Initially subdivided into 396 offices, its notable early tenants included Harrie Lindeberg and John Staub. By 1955, the Union National Bank Building was renamed as the Continental Building. After Continental National Bank vacated the building in 1970, Pan Am National Bank acquired the building, but few tenants remained in 1973. Leasing in 1975 leasing of offices closed, and all of the upper floors were closed of through 2000. Renovation The hotel is part of Marriott International's Autograph Collection Hotels. Located in the former Union National Bank building that was constructed in 1911, the hotel was designed by San Francisco design firm Candra Scott & Anderson at the cost of $35 million. The 12-story hotel features 135 guest rooms and nine individually designed signature suites that include custom-designed period furnishings and décor with original artwork.
