Joan Perry Brock Center Underway at Longwood University to Feature 3,020-Seat Arena

Skanska USA has been selected to build the new Joan Perry Brock Center at Longwood University, located in Durham, North Carolina. The 72,000-square-foot, 3,020-seat arena and convocation center will accommodate the men’s and women’s varsity basketball teams, as well as other university programs.

The construction of the new convocation and events center project is being funded in part with a $15-million contribution from philanthropist Joan Perry Brock (1964). The centrally located building will reflect the traditional architectural style of the campus. The new facility will be a venue for university-wide ceremonies, events, lectures and concerts, as well as a worthy home court for Longwood athletics competition.

The project broke ground in October 2021 and will be completed in the summer of 2023.
