The 8,000 square foot Senior Center was built between the existing Community Center to the south and City Hall to the north. The City had a modest budget so it was a challenge to meet the many program requirements. Multi-function and flexibility was key in the design. The new Center allowed for greater access of program uses through a modifiable “Great Room,” which can be sectioned off into smaller rooms for multiple uses with minimal impact by allowing the facility to expand to a total capacity of approximately 225 for dining and nearly 300 for assembly. The remaining small pockets of outdoor space required for building setbacks were designed as outdoor private courtyard spaces with lush landscaping and fountains to create tranquil spill-out places for senior outdoor leisure activities.
