About: Norfolk Scope

An Entity of Type: venue, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Norfolk Scope is a multi-function complex in Norfolk, Virginia, comprising an 11,000-person arena, a 2,500-person theater known as Chrysler Hall, a 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) exhibition hall and a 600-car parking garage. The arena was designed by Italian architect/engineer Pier Luigi Nervi in conjunction with the (now defunct) local firm Williams and Tazewell, which designed the entire complex. Nervi's design for the arena's reinforced concrete dome derived from the PalaLottomatica and the much smaller Palazzetto dello Sport, which were built in the 1950s for the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome.

dbo:abstract
  • Das Norfolk Scope ist eine Multifunktionsarena mit einem geschlossenen Kuppeldach in der US-amerikanischen Stadt Norfolk im Bundesstaat Virginia. Das Dach des Norfolk Scope mit einem Durchmesser von 134,1 Meter war von 1971 bis 1976 das größte Stahlbetonkuppeldach der Welt. Dies änderte sich mit der Eröffnung des Kingdome (201,0 Meter) in Seattle. Nach dessen Abriss im Jahr 2000 besitzt The Scope wieder das größte Stahlbetonkuppeldach. Gestützt wird das Dach durch 24 Strebebögen. Das Norfolk Scope wurde vom italienischen Bauingenieur Pier Luigi Nervi zusammen mit der Firma Williams and Tazewell entworfen. Nervi war u. a. auch für die Kuppelbauten Palazzo dello Sport und Palazzetto dello Sport für die Olympischen Sommerspiele 1960 in Rom mitverantwortlich. (de)

  • Norfolk Scope is a multi-function complex in Norfolk, Virginia, comprising an 11,000-person arena, a 2,500-person theater known as Chrysler Hall, a 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) exhibition hall and a 600-car parking garage. The arena was designed by Italian architect/engineer Pier Luigi Nervi in conjunction with the (now defunct) local firm Williams and Tazewell, which designed the entire complex. Nervi's design for the arena's reinforced concrete dome derived from the PalaLottomatica and the much smaller Palazzetto dello Sport, which were built in the 1950s for the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. Construction on Scope began in June 1968 at the northern perimeter of Norfolk's downtown and was completed in 1971 at a cost of $35 million. Federal funds covered $23 million of the cost, and when it opened formally on November 12, 1971, the structure was the second-largest public complex in Virginia, behind only the Pentagon. Featuring the world's largest reinforced thinshell concrete dome(though eclipsed by the Seattle Kingdome from 1976 to 2000), Scope won the Virginia Society of the American Institute of Architects Test of Time award in 2003. Wes Lewis, director of Old Dominion University's civil engineering technology program, called it "a beautiful marrying of art and engineering." Noted architectural critic James Howard Kunstler described the design as looking like "yesterday's tomorrow." The name "Scope", a contraction of kaleidoscope, emphasizes the venue's re-configurability. The facility logo (right), which features a multi-colored, abstracted kaleidoscope image, was designed by Raymond Loewy's firm Loewy/Snaith of New York. (en)
