As part of a larger redevelopment that saw the school converted into office and retail space, the auditorium was renovated into a music venue. During construction, two bars and a roof deck were added, but the original wooden seats were preserved.[3]
The venue officially opened on April 17, 2015, with a concert by Neko Case.[5]
