  • 2017 Annual Operating Budget City of Little Rock, Arkansas

    2017 Annual Operating Budget City of Little Rock, Arkansas

    2017 Annual Operating Budget City of Little Rock, Arkansas First opened in February 1940 as the Joseph Taylor Robinson Memorial Auditorium, the Robinson Center Performance Hall and Conference Center reopened in November 2016. This followed a 28 month renovation and expansion of the facility. This $70.5 million project was financed by bonded funds provided by the existing 2% Little Rock Advertising & Promotion tax. The project was approved by Little Rock voters by special election on December 10, 2013. The design team was led by Polk Stanley Wilcox Architects of Little Rock and Ennead Architects of New York. CDI/Hunt Joint Venture served as the General Contractor and Construction Manager. The building was originally designed by the firm of Wittenberg & Delony working with Eugene Stern. The building was named for longtime Arkansas Senator Joseph T. Robinson, who died in July 1937, prior to the start of the construction in December 1937. The project was originally funded by the New Deal’s Public Works Administration. The building’s exterior and historic lobby were restored and the essential character of the landmark building enhanced. All of the interior spaces were rethought and reconfigured to provide enhanced acoustics, updated interior finishes, new media technology, dressing room upgrades, expanded loading dock and storage areas, expanded public lobbies and restrooms, onsite box office, a new centrally-located grand stair to link multiple lobby levels, new public drop-offs and parking garage vestibules and much more. A brand new conference center provides a flexible event space accommodating 530 people and four new meeting rooms above with direct access to a 5,477-square-foot terrace.

  • Multi-Family Dwellings – Low Rise Apartments

    Multi-Family Dwellings – Low Rise Apartments

    2. Multi-Family Dwellings – Low Rise Apartments The expansion of Little Rock’s suburban areas in the post-war era included the construction of dozens of low-rise apartment buildings to provide rental housing. Low- rise is defined as four-stories or less and these apartment buildings were often built along major streets or highways. The majority of these apartment buildings were designed in functional or utilitarian forms and few have been identified as having architectural significance. Many of those built in the 1950s and 1960s have been demolished or extensively altered through replacement of doors and windows and application of synthetic sidings. In response to the housing shortage after the war, a number of low-rise housing projects were built in the city. In Little Rock these early apartments were segregated and those built for African Americans were located in the inner city and away from the suburban subdivisions. Public housing apartments for African Americans included the Joseph A. Booker Homes built in 1950 and Hollingsworth Grove built in 1955. These were built on the east side of the city in contrast to Sunset Terrace (1950) and Highland Park (1955) which were built for white residents on the west side. Sunset Terrace was designed as one-story duplexes as opposed to the low-rise apartments built for African Americans. With the exception of Sunset terrace, these early low-rise housing projects have been demolished. One of the best-preserved apartment buildings from this period is the Prospect Terrace apartments at 3603 Kavanaugh Boulevard built in 1948 (Figure 56). Designed by the firm of Ginocchio and Cromwell, this two-story apartment building reflects the International style in its flat roof and steel casement windows.
