The Central Oklahoma Chapter of the American Institute of Architects on behalf of the OKLAHOMA CITY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION invites the presentation of written proposals for the purchase or lease and redevelopment of the award-winning and iconic Stage Center building in Oklahoma City. 

This internationally significant piece of architecture was designed by John M. Johansen, a student of Walter Gropius and Frank Lloyd Wright, and is considered one of Johansen’s most influential buildings. It received the prestigious American Institute of Architects National Honor Award in 1972. That same year, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City accepted the building model into its permanent collection.

Stage Center is located in Oklahoma City on approximately 2.7 acres on Sheridan Avenue between Hudson Avenue and Walker Avenue. The performing arts building contains both an arena theater (capacity 240) and a thrust-stage theater (capacity 592), as well as offices, lobbies, storage, rehearsal, and other performance support spaces.

The redevelopment of the building may include rehabilitation as a theater or other economically viable use or mix of uses. The redeveloper, however, must ensure that the significant characteristics of the building and property are retained and maintained. All proposals must be compatible with ongoing and planned development of downtown Oklahoma City. The proposed project must be financially viable and should not be contingent upon a fundraising effort or grant application process.

The Oklahoma City Community Foundation (the Foundation), a 501(c)(3) public charity, owns the Stage Center property. The Foundation serves in a trustee role for the property, with the beneficiaries being a number of non-profit activities in the community. The Foundation has agreed to allow the Central Oklahoma Chapter of the American Institute of Architects to solicit written proposals for the possible purchase or lease and redevelopment of the property. The Trustees are willing to review and consider proposals submitted as part of this process but are not obligated to accept any proposal submitted.

All written proposals for the redevelopment, rehabilitation and operation of Stage Center will be received by the AIA Central Oklahoma Chapter, 3535 N. Classen Boulevard, Oklahoma City, OK 73118 by 4:00 p.m. on February 29, 2012. For more information and a complete copy of the Request for Proposals, interested parties can visit the AIA website.
