PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The North Charleston Coliseum is a 13,000-seat multi-purpose facility, considered the Lowcountry’s premier destination for live entertainment and sports. Since its opening in 1993, the Coliseum has been the home ice of the South Carolina Stingrays hockey team and hosts the biggest names in live entertainment.

The project included renovations and additions to the existing facility. The scope of the contract included additions on the north and south facades of the Coliseum, new ticket booths and concessions stands, additional storage space and an expanded entrance. The pantry and kitchen also were renovated to support the new concessions stands, and the existing sound systems and rigging platform inside the arena were converted.

Renovation is often more difficult than new construction, and the Coliseum project was no exception. The available information for the existing Coliseum was limited and incomplete, so a number of unforeseen conditions emerged during the renovation. Our project team worked diligently with the owner and the design team to solve problems that arose, such as underground utilities delaying the construction schedule and existing kitchen equipment that was not compatible with new parts.

The North Charleston Coliseum was CCA’s first project in this area, making it prime example of the quality of work our company does.
