City of Star Event Center

The City of Star, Idaho, is bringing a new gathering space to life with Liberty Hall at Freedom Park—an event center designed to serve as a welcoming hub for community connection, celebrations, and civic events. The project reflects a thoughtful approach to public space, where form and function converge to create an environment that is inviting, durable, and visually striking. As the structure takes shape, it’s clear this facility is more than just a building—it’s an investment in the community and the shared experiences it will host for years to come.

A defining feature of Liberty Hall is its use of mass timber, highlighted by striking fabricated glulam trusses that span an impressive 64 feet and rise approximately 20 feet high. These structural elements not only provide the strength needed for large, open interior spaces but also create a warm, natural aesthetic that enhances the overall design. The scale and craftsmanship of the wood framing add a sense of grandeur while showcasing the possibilities of engineered wood products. Together, these elements demonstrate how thoughtful material choices can elevate both performance and beauty in a modern community space.
