The DiMenna Center for Classical Music, opened in March 2011, occupies half of a six-story building, located at 450 West 37th Street.  The Center provides a creative home for the Orchestra of St. Luke’s, the St. Luke’s Chamber Ensemble, and the St.Luke’s Arts Education Program.  It also addresses the urgent needs of small-to-mid-size organizations and groups challenged by increasingly prohibitive real estate costs while trying to maintain their work and visibility in New York City.  After a comprehensive renovation of the two existing theaters, the 20,000-plus square foot facility boasts a large rehearsal hall with state-of-the-art recording and staging capabilities, a chamber orchestra rehearsal hall, one small chamber studio, two practice rooms, a musician lounge and café, a music resource center and library, and OSL’s administrative offices.

Orchestra of St.Luke’s shares the 450 West 37th Street building with the Baryshnikov Arts Center. Both organizations have worked together to create an environmentally sensitive environment for their respective organizations.  The building is on track to achieve LEED Gold certification.
