The City of Edmond is a progressive city with a high quality of life, but was lacking indoor aquatic spaces. Through a series of discussions, a partnership was forged between the City of Edmond, the Edmond Public Schools system and the Greater Oklahoma City YMCA, with the a common goal to create an indoor aquatic space for leisure, wellness and competitive use. The center, located in a large regional park that contains a large number of ball fields, complements the design of a recently built senior center, creating a new image for the park. Our team led the architectural programming and capital budgeting processes, and was the design architect for the facility.
