Our event space features an elegant 13,000-square-foot grand ballroom with an overlooking 2,500-square-foot mezzanine and an additional landing area. Built in 1928, at the height of the Art Deco movement, The Cadre Building’s rooms contribute a classic look to your event, accented with brilliant crystal chandeliers, intricately crafted columns detailed with hand-painted, gold-leaf molding, and champagne-hued drapery. All of this glamor and beauty is included in every booking, no matter what type of event you’re planning.
