Located in Southeast Boise along the Boise River, the floor plan is situated to slightly bend with the river. Connection with the outdoors can be felt throughout the space with natural light and patios. Short term housing and a wellness retail space make this a destination for people from out-of-state as well.
“The facility will be built to train athletes for the Idaho outdoors. There is nothing like it, so its very existence makes it stand out. The enhanced accessibility in its design goes well above and beyond code minimums to ensure it is friendly to athletes of all abilities.”
