Commissioned by the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation under their Design Excellence program, the Gertrude Ederle Recreation Center (formerly the 59th Street Recreation Center) entails the renovation of a historic 1906 bathhouse and the construction of a 10,500 sf addition. The completed building will contain a swimming pool, gymnasium, fitness center, aerobics studio, new locker rooms, a youth activity center, multi-purpose community rooms, and comfort stations to serve the new park and playground.
