Piedmont Community Aquatic Center
Piedmont, CA | sports/recreation
For many years, this small East Bay city has been working toward its vision of a community aquatic center that would replace an existing pool.
Now, ELS is guiding the project’s design, with a scope that includes facilitating community workshops and overseeing construction.
This project is a unique opportunity to merge a number of recreational resources into a new and inviting hub for community-oriented wellness activities. The existing pool, located in Piedmont’s dense civic center, opened in the 1960s. A beloved site for generations of users, it was finally shuttered in 2020 due to aging, leaky equipment. In a response to the surge in demand since then, our new pool master plan offers more water area and a wide variety of options. The new community center will include a two-story aquatics and community building that will support a range of uses.
