PROJECT INFORMATION

The Mankato Civic Center underwent an extensive renovation and expansion project in otder to host more local events in the city. The project included 65,000 sqft of new construction space, as well as 27,000 sqft of existing space that was renovated. The bulk of the project included the addition of a new event center connected to the civic center, updated locker rooms for the Minnesota State University Mankato hockey teams, and renovated offices, lobbies, and conference spaces. The new civic and event center spaces were designed with retractable seating and flexible spaces for concerts, sporting events, performances, and other public events. The building’s primary precast concrete exterior now features large areas of glass that provide views of the lobbies and stairways, as well as a limestone and metal panel facade.
