Ice Box Skating Rink

Ice Box Skating Rink

SOUTH BEND, INDIANA

Overview


The Ice Box Skating Rink project consisted of a 37,000-square-foot pre-engineered metal building (PEMB), paired with a 6,800-square-foot adaptive-reuse renovation, which added modern functionality while preserving the site’s historic character, a former Oliver Plow factory built in 1920.

The expanded facility features a new NHL-sized rink, team locker rooms, spectator seating, and a dynamic lobby with concessions, lounge space, and a pro shop.

Ancon’s Integrated Design-Build™ methodology ensured seamless integration with decades of existing additions, each with varying elevations and materials. Historic columns were creatively repurposed into the new design.
