Services
Whether you are planning a small get-together, fundraiser, business function or reception, The Steam Plant is easily-customizable indoor and outdoor venue for any event. The Former DP&L steam generating plant closed its doors in the mid-1980s after eight decades of operation. Several attempts to revitalize the historical building failed and the city of Dayton took ownership of the abandoned property.

What a transformation the owners have done to this historical space. With a jaw dropping industrial style, it is certainly one of the most unique venues in Dayton. If your looking for a space to hold your event, be sure to check out The Steam Plant!

The venue was beautiful and great for Dayton Startup Week. However the parking lot is very narrow and difficult to navigate in a larger vehicle.

Currently here for a christmas event. The inside is very beautiful. Definitely recommend for weddings or large crowds. The parking is the only downside. I had to go find people to move vehicles for me to even get my truck through. It's not even that big. The spaces cause some confusion on how far back they can go.

Great atmosphere! Only problem was the sound system at the time of the event was difficult to hear. Made doing a live auction very difficult.
