At the facility’s core, there is a large 2-story fitness area with strength and cardio training equipment including Olympic lifting platforms.
Roof framing utilizes long span steel joists over the basketball courts and fitness areas to eliminate any columns intruding in the areas below.
Full-height glass windows extend the entire length of the 3-story entry hallway and provide sweeping views of the campus lawns.
