San Diego, California

This three-story 38,782 square foot new satellite student recreational facility will enhance the university’s existing Canyonview Recreation and Athletic Center. The existing facility houses both Athletic and Recreation Locker Rooms, and support spaces however the general student population and aquatics programs have outgrown the existing facility.
