Foley Dedicates Activity Center

Foley has dedicated its new Activity Center at 315 East Jessamine Avenue, which is the renovation of the Foley National Guard armory. Now a recreation space and administrative office area, it includes a new indoor gymnasium for residents and the offices of the city’s Parks and Recreation Department, Communications Department and Leisure Services administration. The 16,000-ft2 building’s renovation as a municipal facility also includes a classroom for recreational programs and senior citizens activities, a climate-controlled space for museum archives and a sensory space for special-needs programming and events. The gymnasium includes space that can be configured for four pickleball courts, a basketball court or a volleyball court. Paul Carpenter Davis Architecture was the architect on the $1.97-million project. The contractor was Del-Con LLC.
