Evansville Arena (Ford Center)
Americas Engineers Project

(Denver) and is responsible for the complete design of the Fire Protection System as well as the partial design of the Mechanical and Electrical Systems, mainly all the support & concession areas outside the bowl in the Event and Concourse Levels.
