The iconic Forest Theater Marquee Tower is back where it belongs.
The historic Forest Theater in South Dallas, originally built in 1949 and once home to music legends such as Tina Turner, Gladys Knight, B.B. King, Erykah Badu, and Prince, is entering a new chapter. Linbeck is honored to be part of the transformation of this beloved community landmark into a Center for Learning, Art, and Innovation for the next generation.
Think: a 1,000-seat concert hall. A 200-seat studio theater. A 13,000 SF STEAM hub with recording studios, design labs, and spaces for emerging artists. Oh, and a rooftop terrace with views of the Dallas skyline and Fair Park. 🎶🎨🔬
We can't wait for this one to come to life. 🏗️
