Dramatic Showroom

Built in 1923 originally as a bowling alley, the space is open and light with a front facade made almost entirely of solid glass. The building later became an automobile showroom and eventually a print shop, where The Press Room gets its name. Urban vibes come from the old brick walls and original steel truss structure, which glitters with lights every night of the year. It’s an historic space with every modern amenity.

White building with large glass windows and entrance, plants in white planters outside, and string lights inside, under a partly cloudy sky.

Whatever you’re celebrating, let us bring your vision to life.
