Location Gainesville, FL
Project Size 5,500 SF
Construction Cost $1,568,172
Description

The University of Florida men’s and women’s tennis teams are consistently among the most successful in the NCAA. The ever-increasing national status of the program and the rapid growth of the coaching and support staff revealed serious deficiencies in the old tennis facility. This 5,500 square foot facility adds a strong visual and functional structure. The scope of the project includes men’s and women’s lockers, showers and support spaces. The facility also includes a large conference room, coaching staff offices and administrative areas. The main interior corridor features an impressive display wall dedicated to honoring the extraordinary success of the university’s varsity tennis program.

This visually striking facility incorporates strong angular shapes and brick patterns and a distinctive courtyard has been created adjacent to the playing courts.

The work was performed on a constricted site in a high traffic area.
