ATLANTA, Ga. – The city of Atlanta and Winter Johnson FS360 recently celebrated the new Martin Luther King, Jr. Recreation & Aquatic Center with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The new recreation center is situated between the King Memorial MARTA station and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic District in Atlanta, Georgia.
The $24.4-million Design-Build project fills the void created when the original Martin Luther King, Jr. Natatorium closed in 2012. The new Martin Luther King, Jr. Recreation & Aquatic Center is now a key focal point and unifying center for the area’s dynamic and growing neighborhoods. Features include:
- Zero-entry family-fun pool with play equipment features and a distinct area with lap swimming lanes
- Basketball gymnasium with six goals and flexibility for other hard-court sports
- Elevated running/walk track overlooking the gymnasium and pool
- Climbing wall
- Outdoor terrace
- Multiple community and meeting rooms
- Senior center
- Group fitness areas
- Computer room
