The largest building project ever undertaken at the University of Maine at Orono, the LEED Silver-certified Student Recreation Center features a three-court gymnasium, fitness center, natatorium, suspended walking / jogging track and support spaces. The contemporary building fits seamlessly into its heavily wooded site and incorporates sustainable building materials and systems including heat-recovery systems and recyclable materials. Two double-height skylighted galleries, one north-south and one east-west, form the primary circulation.
