Signaling the start of the transformation of one of the nation's most famous athletic and student-use facilities, UCLA along with construction company PCL and global design firm NBBJ recently broke ground on the renovation and expansion of Pauley Pavilion. UCLA has partnered with the Los Angeles office of NBBJ, a leading architecture and design firm, to transform Pauley Pavilion into a state-of-the-art, multi-purpose facility. The project will entail long overdue infrastructure and amenities improvements on the 1965 building, including major seismic and life-safety upgrades, as well as much needed improved seating, new pedestrian concourses, and modern team facilities.
