In 2009 the gallery underwent an extensive interior renovation managed by Bird. The job entailed restoring the main gallery’s existing terrazzo floor, plaster ceiling, entrances and signage. A significant upgrade to the project included the installation of acoustic isolators to limit the vibration and noise disturbance generated by the athletic facility located directly above the gallery.
