Hagerty Auditorium

Two Children's Program Unit structures. Each building housed two Units. The building would be designated by a unit numer such as 71. The individual units within were then differentiated by an 'A' or a 'B' after the number - ex: '71A' or '71B'. The two units in the building were semi-autonomous but with a single Unit Supervisor overseeing both 'sides'. Sometimes one unit would be co-ed while the other either all-male or all-female. Often one side would house kids somewhat older than the other.
