Berlin's Philharmonie isn't regarded to be a good hall and I don't know about Carnegie Hall, but I think it's more the name which provokes the OOOOhs and AAAAhs than the acoustics itself.In the period of 1985-1988 the Grote Zaal of the Concertgebouw, which is worthwide known for its spectacular acoustics has been renovated due to the at that time deplorable state of the building; it's built in the 19th century.
This was kind of difficult since during this deconstructing and building the acoustics at no costs should be changed and every step in the process was taken under an acoustic magnifying glass, because even stuc and paint can change the acoustics and the ultimate effect was that the acoustics started to be more bright than the warmness the hall used to have which will only be temporary due to the increase of dust in places unreachable for the cleaners.
Good acoustics can't be built, it's usually fate or extreme luck to have them, just like Birmingham's Symphony Hall which is the most recent venue dropping into my mind.
