Fairce O. Woods Coliseum
Breathitt County Schools | Jackson, KY
On Sunday, May 3, 2020 a fire broke out at the rear of the Fairce O. Woods Coliseum in Jackson, Kentucky. Fortunately, the fire was extinguished quickly, but the water used to stop the spread also caused extensive damage. Tate Hill Jacobs was hired to conduct an investigation into the extent of the damage to the Coliseum and provide professional services to lead the necessary repairs. Built in the late 1960s, the Fairce O. Woods is well loved by the community not only for its architectural beauty, but also the generations of students who have studied, attended social or athletic functions, and graduated under its majestic dome.
