County releases new images of the Ashburn Rec Center

Now this is what we call progress. New photos of the upcoming Ashburn Recreation & Community Center have been released — and they show the swimming pool full of water and a gym filled with basketball hoops.

Previous images showed mostly unfinished construction going on in spaces, but now the finishing touches are being put in place on the new center off Broadlands Boulevard near the Dulles Toll Road.

The 50-meter competition swimming pool looks ready for swimmers to jump in today. Same with a leisure pool and a water play area.

Meanwhile, the hardwood floors on the basketball court are polished to a high shine — and other spaces around the building are looking good too.

Work on the center is supposed to be completed this summer with an opening planned for late summer, once the county’s Park & Rec department can move in and get its staff trained.

Besides the pools and gym, other features planned include:

  • Fitness Areas with Cardio and Strength Equipment
  • Recovery Room with Hydromassage and Cryo Lounges, Normatec Compression, and Red Light Therapy
  • Sensory Room
  • Fitness Classes
  • Spin Studio
  • Teaching Kitchen
  • Outdoor Splash Pad with Waterfall Tower Feature
