Community Invited to Meet Regarding Multipurpose Cultural and Performing Arts Center

The City of El Paso has scheduled a community meeting to provide helpful information about the land acquisition process regarding the development of the Multipurpose Cultural and Performing Arts Center.

The objective of the meeting is to empower impacted tenants and property owners with useful information and provide them with the opportunity to ask questions and share their concerns including relocation assistance.

The City of El Paso will not acquire all properties within the master planning area. The goal is to impact the fewest number of properties possible for the $180 million Multipurpose Cultural and Performing Arts Center and its access points. The actual footprint of the proposed facility is located on one and a half blocks from South Santa Fe Street south to Paisano, west to the alleyway before Leon Street, up the alleyway to West Overland Avenue and east to South Santa Fe Street.

The community meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Monday, November 14, at the vacant Fire Station, located at 331 S. Santa Fe Street.
