Using a vacant shopping center, with several modifications to the existing structure, the Southwood County YMCA was able to identify its new home. The new center features an aquatic center with competitive swimming lanes, a lazy river, a splash pad, group exercise studios with lounge areas, childcare and kids adventure center, a teaching kitchen with a community garden, an indoor walking jogging track, administration areas, and other typical support spaces.
Engineering scope included a pool dehumidification unit with fabric ductwork, hot water boiler system, high efficiency rooftop equipment, destratification fans, plumbing and drainage for the new areas, integration into existing building systems, structural precast and steel design for building expansion, LED lighting, electrical gear for expansion, and site development for parking and expansion.
