East Oakland Sports Center
Oakland, CA | sports/recreation | community/education
A hot spot for cool fun in East Oakland
One of the few LEED Silver-certified natatoriums in the U.S. for underserved populations, the new 50,000 sf community sports, recreation, and aquatics center is a project for social and environmental change in East Oakland. Designed as a composition of glass and metal-clad forms, the complex provides visual interest, captures natural light, and controls solar gain. Honored with awards from AIA San Francisco, AIA East Bay, and Athletic Business, the recently-completed Phase I features a natatorium with an indoor leisure and lap pool, a dance and aerobics studio, a fitness center, a learning and media center, and a community gathering space.
