Additional Information
This public-private partnership will work to achieve the following primary goals:
- Advance NECC’s mission by better serving their students of today and the future with health and wellness offerings;
- Enhance NECC facilities in a cost-effective way; and
- Foster better connectivity with the surrounding community to advance shared values and attract and retain students.
NECC’s health and wellness facilities, comprised of the Sports and Fitness Center (Building D, built in 1971) and several fields, do not meet the modern needs of the campus community. These facilities face an estimated $9M+ in deferred maintenance, including outdated systems, ADA accessibility shortcomings, and poor drainage of the fields.
NECC views vibrant athletic health and wellness programming as integral to student retention, physical and mental health, and the success of the college.
This project presents an opportunity to revitalize and modernize a uniquely situated athletic facility in a vibrant and growing city, in partnership with a robust community college.
