Full Description

This project proposes the construction of a new two-story aquatic center as part of Phase 2 of the John Chavis Memorial Park Master Plan. The Phase 2 Aquatic Center project, located alongside the existing John Chavis Community Center and the historic Allan Herschell Carousel, includes approximately five acres of site development and construction of a new indoor/outdoor aquatic facility and Heritage Plaza. The aquatic center will include approximately 25,000 SF of mixed-use interior space consisting of assembly areas, locker rooms, administrative offices, mechanical and equipment rooms, storage, and other support spaces. Indoor aquatic amenities include a 3,160 SF competition/lap pool and a 1,400 SF therapy pool. The outdoor aquatic area will encompass approximately 10,300 SF and feature a 4,600 SF activity pool with a lazy river, vortex, water recreation area, and a two-story waterslide. The building's architectural design is highlighted by an overhead oval-shaped perforated metal "crown" that distinguishes the facility's roofline and references the park's historic carousel. The project also includes reconfiguration of site parking, upgrades to the Heritage Plaza with a historically inspired public art installation, repairs to the existing stone bridge, and new connections to the South Park Heritage Trail. The aquatic center will be a fully sprinklered, steel-framed structure with mixed assembly and business occupancies. The scope of work includes complete civil, structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, and site utility systems to provide a modern, year-round aquatic facility that honors the historic legacy of John Chavis Memorial Park while serving the recreational and community needs of future generations.
