info
Sevier Park Community Center is a public building providing free and discounted recreational and community-use space. Designed to meet LEED Gold requirements, the center’s green features include a green roof, pervious parking pavers, rain gardens, and the use of recycled materials. In order to minimize site disturbance and save existing mature trees, the building is located on the site of the circa 1960’s existing center and parking lot. The interior includes “up-cycling” the 1960’s gymnasium floor, which was removed and reinstalled as wall panels in the lobby. The building is integrated into the sloping site by having a “split level” main floor, with entries from the low south side into a lower lobby area and entries from the high north side where the parking lot is located.
