St. Charles Aquatics Center
Versatile facility creates northern Illinois swimming destination
A new aquatics center brings the first Olympic-size pool to the region of St. Charles, Geneva, and Batavia, Illinois. The 65,000-square-foot center is designed to generate revenue for the St. Charles Park District as a venue for competitions, swimming lessons, and children’s recreation.
The design specifies cost-effective, highly insulated precast concrete panels for the majority of the building. Also, metal panels change in appearance based on the position of the sun.
Legat completed schematic design and fundraising materials for this project.
