Projet de piscine communautaire Kiwanis
En 2019, le Département des parcs, des loisirs et des installations a commencé à faire des démarches pour planifier le remplacement de la piscine Kiwanis, vieille de plus de 60 ans. Grâce à la sensibilisation des groupes d'utilisateurs de la piscine et des groupes de quartier existants, un plan conceptuel et un budget ont été créés qui permettraient un meilleur accès aux Portlanders de toutes capacités, y compris un nouvel accent sur l'accès ADA, une zone d'entrée zéro pour les personnes à mobilité réduite et les jeunes tout-petits. , ainsi que des fonctionnalités récréatives améliorées pour les adolescents et les jeunes adultes. Les couloirs de nage pour les longueurs et les zones d'instruction étaient également importants pour les groupes communautaires. Depuis 2019, une vision a été préparée pour une piscine du 21e siècle qui fait appel à une grande variété de Portlanders de toutes capacités et de tous horizons. Située dans le quartier animé de Libbytown et à proximité de nombreux développements de logements pour la main-d'œuvre, la nouvelle piscine de Dougherty Field promet d'être un centre de loisirs et un espace de rassemblement communautaire pour les générations à venir.
