Cordova Center

In the interior of the foyer and museum.

Work on Cordova’s new multi-use facility continues on despite the weather! The crews have been working on closing her in with glass -roc sheeting and insulation.  Framing of the walls and windows is almost complete. Beautiful masonry is taking place on the southwest wall and will soon move up and around to the other sides of the building.

A call for artists has gone out with the first stage a request for qualifications and ideas. Packets are available at both the front desk of city hall and from the Cordova museum.  Interested artists may receive a packet via email by contacting the Cordova Center Project Leader at infoservices@cityofcordova.net.

While all of the initial construction begins for the Cordova Center we’re now beginning to work on finalizing Phase II which will include all the interior and exterior finishing touches to our community facility.

Looking North toward Main Street.

Phase II will begin sometime next summer and the entire facility is anticipated to open to the public by the Spring of 2013  To see a model of the Cordova Center stop in to the current museum and library in the Centennial Building on First Street.  You can also check out the exterior color selections.
