Henry Yandt Construction proudly completed the transformation of a former school building into the Paradise Event Center, a high-end, modern venue designed to accommodate a variety of upscale gatherings. This project combined thoughtful renovation with new construction, expanding the original 5,964 sq. ft. structure by an additional 2,968 sq. ft. for a total of 8,932 sq. ft.

Our team executed a careful balance of preservation and innovation—maintaining key structural elements while creating an open, inviting layout. The project exemplifies our commitment to delivering refined, community-enhancing spaces that blend function and design.

Construction Highlights:

• Selective interior demolition and structural modifications to create a spacious, open-concept layout

• New 2,968 sq. ft. addition constructed with steel framing

• Exterior veneer of split-faced masonry wainscot and decorative metal panels

• Extensive storefront glazing to maximize natural light and enhance openness

• Polished concrete flooring throughout interior spaces

• All new doors, hardware, and modernized bathroom fixtures

• Full HVAC system upgrade for year-round comfort and efficiency
  

This revitalized event center now serves as a dynamic community hub—elevating the site’s legacy while delivering contemporary design and functionality.
