Major work is complete on the new David Douglas Aquatics Center in Southeast Portland. Contractor LCG Pence Construction began work last summer on the 15,800-square-foot building, which will replace the existing swim facility immediately to the north of the new building. The SERA Architects designed building includes a 25-meter-long pool with capacity for 450 spectators, locker rooms, and offices for support staff. The first classes at the pool will be held Monday, and a ribbon cutting ceremony is scheduled for Aug. 4.

A mural inside the aquatics center pays tribute to Kim Peyton McDonald, a 1975 graduate of David Douglas High School and Olympic gold medalist who passed away in 1986.
