Fairfield has a new event venue opening Friday.

The Goudy Entertainment Center, located a 4501 Gary Ave., is a project of Goudy Construction, a woman-owned, Historically Underutilized Business Zone certified full-service construction company.

The 2,200-square-foot center can host corporate gatherings, wedding receptions, educational programs, concerts, rehearsal dinners, parties and other events, and accommodate live music, with catering, bar and VIP parking.

The Goudy Center building will also serve as the home office of Goudy Construction, and eventually, six upscale lofts.
