|
|
February 12, 2009
 The Central Los Angeles Area High School #9 for the visual and performing arts by Coop Himmelb(l)au has just been completed. The school will open for the new school year in September 2009.
After Richard Neutra and Rudolf Schindler, Wolf D. Prix/Coop Himmelb(l)au is the first Austrian architect to build in Los Angeles.
The Central Los Angeles Area High School #9 for the Visual and Performing Arts of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) is part of phase II of LAUSD’s rigorous state bond funded plan to have 155 new schools built in its district by 2012. Located on a 9.8 acre site on Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles, the school will be a comprehensive High School and in addition will offer courses in the Visual Arts, Performing Arts, Music and Dance.
Due to its central location the High School #9 will be a part of the cultural facilities along the Grand Avenue cultural corridor, joining the Walt Disney Concert Hall by Frank O. Gehry, Music Center by Welton Becket, Colburn School of Music by Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer, Museum of Contemporary Art/MOCA by Arata Isozaki and the Cathedral of our Lady of the Angels by Rafael Moneo. |
