Town Broke Ground for Future Whitby Sports Complex and Outdoor Park
Last week on Thursday September 14 2023 a groundbreaking ceremony was held to officially mark the start of construction on the Whitby Sports Complex.
From Whitby.ca:
"The amenities planned to be part of the 160,000 square-foot Whitby Sports Complex facility include:
- an aquatic centre with a 25-metre, 10-lane pool, separate leisure pool and 2nd floor spectator viewing area – which will make the Whitby Sports Complex home to the largest pool in Durham Region;
- a double gymnasium, with three-lane indoor walking track;
- a twin-pad arena with 85-foot by 190-foot ice pads; and
- flexible spaces to support community programs, meetings, and arts and cultural activities.
A number of environmental sustainability initiatives incorporated into the facility’s design will make it the first Zero Carbon building and LEED Gold facility in Canada to include a twin pad arena, gymnasium, and aquatics facility. The facility will also be built to accommodate visitors of all abilities, featuring a fully accessible ramp from the ground floor to the second floor and centrally located barrier-free spectator seating in the aquatics and arena areas."
