The ceremony was attended by Schenectady Mayor Gary McCarthy, city officials, and the Saratoga Associates team, including project manager Emily Gardner, RLA, designer Jared Malinoski, and Ryan Dussault. They were all excited to break ground on this much-anticipated project.
The Schenectady Central Park Pool project will bring numerous improvements to the existing facility, including the construction of a new pool house, expanded parking, and improved accessibility for people with disabilities. The pool itself will also receive several upgrades, such as new filtration systems, lighting, and a splash pad area for young children.
“It’s healthy, outdoor activities that add value to the city as a whole, and our neighborhoods that are adjacent to the parks that have done these upgrades.”
-Mayor Gary McCarthy
Saratoga Associates is honored to be part of this project and are excited to help bring the city’s vision to life. We’ve worked closely with the community to develop a design that meets their needs while also being functional, beautiful, and sustainable.
The groundbreaking ceremony marks the beginning of an exciting chapter for Schenectady and its residents. The city is committed to providing its residents with high-quality recreational facilities, and this project is a testament to that commitment. With the help of Saratoga Associates, Schenectady is poised to create a state-of-the-art pool facility that will serve as a gathering place for the community for many years to come.
