Models of the
Walt Disney Concert Hall
January 1990
 

The initial design by Frank O. Gehry for the Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles, California, began over ten years ago and is scheduled to open in the fall of 2003.  Frank O. Gehry personally selected Anamosa Limestone to cover a major portion of this magnificent new building.

The focus of the design is the 2,400-seat hall that will be the permanent home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, which is known as one of the world's most famous orchestras.  The structure will also house the Los Angeles Master Chorale and will include a gift shop, a restaurant and café, a pre-concert performance space and a six-level parking garage located under the Concert Hall.

The $300 million structure is approximately 200,000 square feet in size.  The building and grounds take up an entire city block of 3.6 acres at the intersection of First Street and Grand Avenue.

Thirty-seven semi-loads (nearly 800 ton) of Anamosa Limestone have been hauled to California and our stone will ultimately cover approximately 135,000 square feet of the building!
