Kraus-Anderson completes Iron Trail Motors Event Center

The $38 million regional convention center renovated the former Miners Memorial Facility into a multi-use facility for concerts, tradeshows, events and meetings.  The project for the city of Virginia encompasses the area’s heritage and pays tribute to the mining industry by incorporating elements into the exterior, such as taconite, iron colors and shale rocks in the landscaped areas. 

Designed by DSGW Architects, the two-story, 120,000-square-foot facility provides two state-of-the-art hockey and ice sport arenas, a 6,400-square-foot ballroom that can be divided into four 1,500-square-foot sections, two meeting rooms offering 1,000 square feet of event space, and a 320-square-foot board room for meetings and conferences. The event center also provides fitness space and facilities for the health and wellness of the community.
