Wagman completed renovations for the Appell Center for the Performing Arts in downtown York, PA, in September 2023. This $2.7 million project focused on upgrading the facility’s HVAC system, including rooftop units, interior air management devices, and system controls. These improvements enhance building comfort and efficiency while reducing energy costs. The rooftop units were replaced in July 2023, requiring downtown street closures and creative construction solutions to access the tight site safely.

The project also included updates to the Strand Theatre’s concessions area, featuring new service equipment, beer taps, and improved layout and accessibility.

Additionally, aging exterior doors were replaced and equipped with new accessibility hardware.
