Jazz at Lincoln Center plans to renovate the public spaces in Frederick P. Rose Hall, its home in the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle. The project will commence in July, with an estimated cost of $18.5 million and a scheduled completion of December, according to an announcement to be made on Thursday. The redesign comes a decade after the opening of Rose Hall, known internally as the House of Swing, a roughly $130 million performing arts complex hailed at the time as an unprecedented achievement for any jazz organization. Since then there have been thousands of events in the hall’s three main rooms — the 1,233-seat Rose Theater, the glass-faced Appel Room (formerly the Allen Room), and Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola — and the facility has become a prominent feature on the cultural landscape of New York City.
