UMass Amherst Recreation Center
Following a decision to separate athletics and recreation facilities, the University of Massachusetts, Amherst engaged Sasaki to design a new recreation center. The new recreation center is sited at a prominent location along Commonwealth Avenue to reinforce the university’s goal of promoting recreation and wellness. The building is a fresh adaptation to the architectural style of the campus and ushers in a new era of health and fitness opportunities for students. Programming includes weight and fitness areas, a three-court gymnasium, a wellness center, an elevated jogging track, three multi-purpose rooms, locker and shower facilities, and offices space for intramural sports and clubs. The building also features wi-fi, hydration stations, cardio theater equipment, an electronic message board, and a 65-inch television. The new center resonates with UMass students—on a typical day more than 2,500 of them use the facility.
