Conceptual renderings show the two phases of Newton Community Centre, to be built in 6900-block of King George Boulevard.
The $100M first phase of the project will include a 10-lane, 50-metre lap pool, leisure pool, lazy river and other water attractions on the site – about a half-kilometre from the neighbourhood’s existing wave pool.
“The design process is well underway,” noted a report to council this week.
A future Phase 2 development addition, currently unfunded, will include a library, recreation and culture amenities, the corporate report adds.
The Newton Community Centre project is on track for completion in 2025, according to the report.
