From a place of education to a space of celebration, Ellsworth Block's journey is steeped in history. 📚✨ Originally built in 1871, the top two stories of Ellsworth Block were once a school. ⁠

The heart of Ellsworth Block lies in its transformation, blending the nostalgia of its roots with the allure of a sophisticated event space. The hidden treasure of the Atrium, with its majestic full-ceiling skylight, remains a symbol of the building's history, providing a touch of enchantment and a source of abundant natural light.
