The Community Center is part of the 80 acres and ten years of building spawn by the 1965 capital improvements bond issue, in which two-thirds of the money was provided by the federal government as a Title I renewal project. The community center is composed of three buildings: a Convention Center with arena and exhibition hall, a 2,400 seat Music Hall, and the Leo Rich Theater with 575 seats. These buildings are placed around a spacious central plaza, design by Garret Eckbo of EDAW, with fountains and other water features, which unfortunately have not been well maintained.
