2,140 SF

Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects, Inc. (RNT) designed this new Aquatic Center, which includes a 25 yard x 35 meter swimming pool and a 2,140 SF support building that house the pool mechanical and provide storage for pool equipment. The pool building was designed to complement the aesthetic forms of the existing campus structures, a $68 mil. comprehensive high school that RNT completed in 2007. The design team selected durable and low-maintenance, multi-colored masonry blocks with a steel framed roof that features wide over hangs for added shade area. This aquatic center is used by the school for swimming competitions and water polo and is also rented out by regional teams for competitive events as well as the surrounding community for swim classes and other pool events.
