McCarthy Building Companies Inc. of Newport Beach announced Tuesday that the firm had completed its restoration of the 83-year-old Huntington Beach High School (HBHS) Darrel Stillwagon auditorium and bell tower. The addition of a new performing arts classroom was part of the renovation plan.
The auditorium, located on Main Street and Yorktown Ave. in Huntington Beach, was one of the first buildings constructed on the high school campus in 1926, making it the first permanent high school in the Huntington Beach Union High School District (HBUHSD).
The $9.6 million project was funded through the $238 million HBUHSD Measure C modernization and expansion program, which encompasses school facility improvements at six high schools in the district.
McCarthy was construction manager for the project, which involved building a new 9,200-square-foot performing arts classroom building and courtyard as well as major restoration of the 27,000 square-foot, 600-seat performing arts auditorium and bell tower.
