Nestled in the heart of downtown Kansas City, Missouri, Bartle Hall is the metro’s largest convention and entertainment center. Since initial construction in 1899, the center has grown to cover more than eight city blocks, straddles a continuously open six-lane freeway and offers 800,000 SF of floor space. BHC was selected to provide utility location, surveying and construction staking services for a renovation which included the addition of two 225-foot curved, solid glass entrances on the venue’s north and south sides for Bartle Hall. The length and curvature of the new entries contributed unique design and surveying challenges to the project. Our team used advanced robotics to establish more than 250 distinct control points for contractors to ensure the correct stationing of each custom-made section of wall.
