A View of the Front Entrance

Great views of the front entrance and Community Room. The steel roofing is sure to provide a beautiful, covered entry.

Don’t Look Down

Crews safely defy gravity as they frame the second story fitness rooms.

Office Space for Staff

Parks and Recreation staff are getting excited about their soon to be home. This space will house admin as well as lifesaving staff.

Rec Pool Rebar and Forms

Rebar is in place on the recreation pool structure. Next up is the two-week process of shotcrete. Progress is going swimmingly.

Comp Pool is Formed

Wow! Just look at the amount of shotcrete work that went into forming the future 12 lanes competition pool. She looks almost seaworthy.

Community and Aquatic Center Site Progress 

All corners of the site are being developed from parking lot to the east gymnasium walls. Can you picture your first visit here next summer?

COMMUNITY ROOM VIEWS

Block is being completed on the community room doors that will lead to the 1,000sqft courtyard.

LOCKER ROOMS AND RESTROOMS

The first-floor roofing is now in place at what will soon be 2,800sqft of lockers rooms.

STEEL COLUMNS AND BEAMS

With the block almost complete, it is time to frame the facility with steel columns and beams.

DUDE, WHERE’S MY CAR?

The main parking lot is almost prepared for pavement. In total, the facility will have over 200 parking spaces. Sweet!

COMPETITION POOL PROGRESS

Shotcrete on the Competition Pool is now complete. Soon the forms will be removed to reveal the true shape of this amenity.

SOME SERIOUS PLUMBING     

Ever wonder what it takes to circulate water on a commercial pool? The recreation pool has its plumbing mapped out and ready to fill with rock.

COMMUNITY AND AQUATIC CENTER TAKING SHAPE

Great views of what’s to come for Marana. Construction has been booming as site preparation shapes into walls, courts, pools, and parking lots.

BRICK BY BRICK

Walls go vertical in what is soon to be the future office of Parks and Recreation staff.

CONCRETE SMOOTH AS GLASS

The foundation for the center’s three gym floors took a total of 271 cubic yards of concrete. Hoop, there it is!

 

COMPETITION POOL REINFORCED WITH REBAR

This pool has been excavated, formed, plumbed, filled with rock and lined with rebar. This masterpiece will become the center’s 12 lane competition pool.

RECREATION POOL TAKING SHAPE

This feature will include a lap pool, therapeutic resistance channel, splash pad, and a zero-edge entry. Who’s ready to cool off Marana?
