Strampitheater
Term to describe the newly developed museum entrance feature comprised of a stairway + ADA/stroller ramp + amphitheater.
The term was coined during the planning and development of a multi-acre outdoor expansion of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. The Strampitheater allows visitors to make the 9' elevation transition between the street level and the lower entrance of the Museum without the need for a special ADA ramp and serves as a performance venue with a seating capacity accommodating approximately 600.
