Slauson Connect Recreation Center

The Slauson Connect Recreation Center project has the goal of increasing much needed recreational open space, youth development classrooms, and childcare opportunities in underserved South Los Angeles. The City of Los Angeles’ Council District 9 has envisioned a net zero energy “Landmark Building” to serve as an example for revitalization of the Slauson Corridor. The Slauson Connect Recreation Center will serve as a community oasis that offers a place of history, beauty, health, safety, and social activity for local residents while being more broadly connected to the city along Metro’s Bicycle Path Network on Slauson Avenue, as part of the Rail to River Active Transportation Corridor.

The program consists of three departments: Childcare Center, Afterschool Program and Recreation / Classrooms along with support spaces for each department, entry lobby, internal and external circulation, and an extensive roof garden.
