Attached to Saginaw Valley State University’s existing sports arena and recreation facility, this 160,000sf multi-sport NCAA field house for varsity, intramural, and recreational programs contains a 300-meter indoor track, a turf field for football, soccer, baseball & softball, and supporting spaces.
Playing off the adjoining architecture, ground-level glass allows views from campus into the activities taking place within the building. Polycarbonate and insulated metal panels enclose the pre-engineered structure, with connecting spaces designed as a threshold between the 1970s brick construction and the new building.
