Design/Construction Highlights

What’s happening now?  ~ July 12, 2010

• The project continues on budget and on schedule.
• Installation is almost complete for the translucent, partially retractable skylight roof over the existing lap pool.
• Glulam beams and structural insulated panels were lifted into place by crane for the roof over the new north natatorium structure.
• Roofing and interior wall framing began in the new cardio fitness room, entry lobby and locker room areas.
• Seattle artist Susan Zoccola is coordinating installation of the public art sculpture. Ms. Zoccola was selected to create outdoor public art for the Recreation Center. The artwork will consist of three sculptural towers made of blue resin and steel, and will be lit from the inside with LED light. The artist’s inspiration for the work is water, and the many fun shapes water takes.
