Scope Of Work
The new South Kingstown Recreation Center officially opened June 3, 2017. This project was designed to meet the town’s growing demands for indoor recreational space for not only for youth activities but for adult activities as well.
The facility is a 28,250-square foot pre-engineered metal building with a glazed curtain wall/aluminum entrance with rolling doors and features:
2 lane walking track
2 full-size basketball/multi-sport courts each with six adjustable baskets (basketball, volleyball, and electronic scoreboard); retractable bleacher seating.
2 drop-down batting tunnels
2 multi-purpose activity rooms for fitness and aerobic classes
Strength and Cardio Room (375 sq. ft.)
Locker rooms, restrooms, a spacious reception/lobby area and administrative offices
Included in the project was extensive site work to the former St. Dominic Savio Center, a retreat for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence, providing new parking areas, entry plaza and sidewalks, site lighting, fencing and reconstruction of stone walls, and walking paths leading to nearby tennis courts, recreational and athletic fields, dog parks, hiking areas and the Senior Center.
From the ground-breaking to the center’s open, this project was completed in under 14 months
