Wesleyan University in Middletown is planning a new arts center by renovating part of an existing structure and building a new addition. The project will take up university-owned space, mainly parking areas, at 177, 181 and 185 College St. The number of parking spaces would be reduced from 58 down to three. If the plans are approved by the city’s Planning and Zoning Commision, the project would then go out to bid, and likely take 12-18 months to complete, said Joseph Banks, a project manager at Wesleyan. The new 19,155-square-foot lab will house two small design and drawing studios, a small movement dance studio, three offices and performance space for students and the public.
