Description
The Event Centre of Dalhousie University (named Oulton-Stanish in honour of two students who distinguished themselves in sports) is a two-level building with a National Hockey Ligue sized rink including a 906 seat bleacher structure. The rink has an alternate floor surface allowing for Dalhousie and community events including orientation, conferences, convocation, and special events. The Event Centre features food services, a warm lobby with a view of the ice, an event room with a view of the ice surface, six locker rooms, two dedicated varsity locker rooms, lobby space, and a physio clinic. The facility responds to the tight urban site, using its orientation to provide connection to the adjacent LeMarchant Building atrium, and provide a distinct and dynamic public entry, while creating relationships with its University surroundings.
