Phase 3 projects
Seats, sound, and more.
Phase 3 looks ahead to seats, sound, access equipment, the lobby, concessions, and the historic neon. We’re still working out the scope, costs, and timing.
The project list
These are the next projects to plan. Their scope depends on what Phase 2 delivers, the Fox’s existing equipment, and the funding available.
Comfort and access
Auditorium seating
Seating planned around sightlines, safe circulation, wheelchair spaces, and companion seats. The layout and number of seats still need to be confirmed.
Ask about this project →Access to the show
Captioning + listening
Captioning, audio description, and assistive-listening equipment so more people can enjoy the show. The equipment needs to work with the Fox’s cinema and sound systems.

Lobby buildout
A welcoming place to arrive, get tickets, and spend time before a show. The furnishings and finish work depend on what Phase 2 leaves ready for use.

Concession stand
Counters, equipment, and service space for the concession stand. The plan needs to fit the space, available utilities, and required health and building reviews.

Historic neon marquee
Care for the Fox’s historic neon and marquee. We need to confirm what remains after Phase 2, then define the work with qualified specialists and the required historic review.
