Walls at new Richardson gymnastics center put into place

Construction of the new Richardson Gymnastics Center hit a major milestone last week, as its exterior concrete walls were erected. The next step is to begin installation of the facility’s structural steel and roofing, which will allow work inside to move forward without interruptions from inclement weather.

The new Gymnastics Center will open early next year. The City broke ground for the new facility, as well as the new Heights Recreation Center and Family Aquatics Center, in May. All three projects are part of the 2010 Bond Program.
