Newburyport to Host Information Meeting on Community Center Proposal
NEWBURYPORT – Mayor Sean Reardon and the City of Newburyport invite residents and community stakeholders to a community presentation on plans for the new Newburyport Rec Center.
The meeting will be held on Thursday, Jan. 18, at 6:30 p.m., in City Hall Auditorium.
The Recreation and Youth Services Department (formerly NYS) has needed a new home since the heating system at the former Brown School became unusable in 2021. The City purchased the former National Guard building site at 59 Low St. in 2022 as a potential site.
City officials will share conceptual plans developed by EGA, PC Architects of Newburyport. Ample time will be allotted for questions and answers.
“We are excited to share with the community the latest designs, stemming from months of careful consideration of program needs, site constraints, budget considerations and support for our youth and Newburyport residents,” Mayor Reardon said. “Please join us to hear about the project and see a 3D walkthrough of the proposed space.”
