Over the last ten years, we’ve completed several large improvements to the building (including removing exterior paint to reveal the beautiful original brickwork and re-finishing and strengthening the historic spring-loaded dance floor). Elite Hall has had 50,000+ visitors in the last decade, so we are looking forward to this next accomplishment!
