  • The gym is accessible from the activity lounge and the main lobby with retractable bleachers for spectators of the regulation size basketball court
  • The “control center” for the facility is the issue desk, from here, one person has visual access to the front lobby, gymnasium, and the activity lounge

  • Cost: $4.6 million
