New $25M Building Coming To Cincinnati's Joint ATP/WTA Tournament

The combined ATP/WTA Western & Southern Open plans to build a new $25M hospitality and viewing venue between its two main courts, with the groundbreaking planned immediately following the conclusion of next month’s tournament in Cincinnati. The structure will replace the current building and will more than double the interior space for fans and amenities. Center Court seating will increase by 283 seats to 11,750. It is scheduled to be complete in time for the ’18 event. The new 40,000-square-foot, 104-foot-tall structure will have restaurants and different levels offering views of one or both marquee courts. The project was designed by Indianapolis-based architecture firm Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf.
