RC, Veterans, Seniors Team Up For New Recreation, Services Center
The rebuilding and expansion Veterans Memorial Senior Center is long overdue as the current building is in dire need of repair.
REDWOOD CITY, CA — An ideal partnership is being forged for a dual recreation-oriented center to benefit Redwood City residents and visitors wanting to care for two deserving populations — seniors and veterans.
The Veterans Memorial Senior Center/Sequoia YMCA project is being reviewed by the Redwood City, with the local government's Architectural Advisory Committee hosting a hearing to discuss the development of Phase 1 of the new joint facility. The meeting is slated for Sept. 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall located at 1017 Middlefield Road.
Phase 1 of the Veterans Memorial Building/Senior Center encompasses a two-story building amounting to about 45,000 square feet, which will include a 270-seat theater, gym, second-story outdoor track, multipurpose rooms and exhibit space for branches of the armed services.
