Veterans Memorial Senior Center & Joint YMCA
Redwood City, CA | sports/recreation | community/education
Replacing aging facilities at Red Morton Park, the new Veterans Memorial Senior Center and Joint YMCA provides additional space for both facilities and adds new green space to Redwood City.
The new senior center will include a 400-seat theater, gymnasium, kitchen, multipurpose rooms, garden space, and a technology hub and will be completely accessible. The new YMCA will include a health and wellness center, multiple swimming pools, child care, locker rooms, and space for adult, youth, and family programs. The transparent design brings in more natural light and gives the building a more welcoming tone by allowing passers-by to see inside and watch the programmed activities bustle away.
