Guthrie Hires Firm to Oversee Theater Work

MINNEAPOLIS-Now that its search is over for an architect to design the Guthrie Theater’s new building complex, Keewaydin Real Estate Advisors has been hired as project advisor and project manager for design and construction of the new $100-million theater complex on the Mississippi River. Keewaydin served as project advisor to the Guthrie’s architect selection committee, designing and managing the architect selection process, negotiating the acquisition of the site for the three-theater center, and negotiating the agreement with French architect Jean Nouvel.

Keewaydin now will assist the Guthrie in selection of the project’s theater consultant, engineering firm, cost consultant, geo-technical consultant and the general contractor for the project, and in the negotiation of agreements with the members of the design team.
