Renderings for the Dayton Levitt Pavilion revealed
Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton has unveiled design renderings for the new free music venue planned for Dave Hall Plaza in downtown Dayton. The group says the pavilion design will reflect the "elegance and clarity" of early airplane construction and the innovation of flight.
“This project will feature a covered outdoor amphitheater and open lawn seating in a newly revitalized park in the heart of downtown, creating Dayton’s “urban living room”, inspired by Dayton’s rich history of innovation and aviation”, Kevin Deal, Levitt Pavilion Dayton Board member said in a press release.
Construction is expected to start later this summer, with concerts beginning in the summer of 2018. Levitt Pavilion Dayton is expected to host 50 free family-friendly concerts each summer, including a mix of local, national, and international acts.
The project is still $550,000 short of its $5 million fundraising goal needed before construction can begin. Tax-deductible contributions for the project can be made on-line LevittDayton.org or mobile device Text Connect to 91999 or send your check to The Dayton Foundation, 40 N. Main Street, Suite 500 Dayton, Ohio 45423 Acct. #7769.
Levitt Dayton Board member Dave Dickerson remarked, “The construction of Levitt Pavilion Dayton on Dave Hall Plaza will be a catalyst for development in this historic and urban neighborhood. By creating social interactions among all ages and backgrounds in a family friendly environment, Levitt Dayton will be the tipping point where downtown becomes a more vibrant and bustling center for work, living, and entertainment.”
