SOLARIS SPORTS CLUB, YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, NEW YORK
THE CHALLENGE
To convert an existing six-court tennis facility into a multi-sport club with expanded amenities, fitness offerings and programming for its ever-changing membership base. The club retained an active tennis membership. Consequently, two of the existing tennis courts had to remain operational during a majority of the construction.
THE SOLUTION
ICA provided design and construction management services for this court conversion project, which entailed demolition of four of the six courts to allow space for new sports and fitness facilities. A basketball court and gymnasium, indoor soccer, and baseball batting cages were incorporated on the main level. A new mezzanine level was constructed above the gymnasium to accommodate a cardio center and fitness training center and an aerobics studio. A juice bar and new reception area were also incorporated into the design.
THE RESULTS
Formerly Match Point Tennis & Fitness, the new multi-sport Solaris Sports Club is positioned to meet the demands of its increasingly diverse membership. The renovation incorporated a vibrant and energizing color scheme throughout, and the Solaris Café provides an additional revenue stream for the owners while appeasing thirsty members. The club expanded its membership base – and thereby its revenue – pursuant to the greater variety of sports and fitness programs now available. Solaris gained more than 1,000 new members in the 12 months following the grand re-opening.
