New York City College of Technology NAB Theater – CUNY
Project Location: Brooklyn, NY
The SCW900-A7 Series windows were custom-designed for City Tech’s new state-of-the-art science and health-related facility’s 1,000-seat theater.
The high-acoustic control room windows have a sound transmission rating of STC-52 for interior sound control, so when an actor needs a spotlight or a scene requires day turning into night, the production technicians inside the control room can work, and interact, without interfering with the on-stage performance.
