The 11,500 sq. ft. facility, with its brick and precast concrete exterior and composite slate roof treatment, provides an inviting appearance. The addition of precast concrete oak leaf medallions adds sophistication to the project. The open interior houses adult and children's areas discreetly segregated through the minimal use of glazed partitions, furniture arrangement, ceiling treatment, and innovative decorative accents. Additionally, a large multipurpose room allows for the scheduling of community gatherings, both during and after hours.
