Smith Edwards Architects worked closely with the Boys &
Girls Clubs of America and several neighborhood and parents groups to
design this new clubhouse in Hartford’s Asylum Hill neighborhood.
The 30,000 square foot facility includes a 6,000 square foot gymnasium,
fitness room, “black box” theater, a computer technology center,
homework room, arts classroom, meeting rooms, snack bar, and social spaces
for teens as well as for younger members. The second floor of the building
will also house the main offices of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater
Hartford.
The “L-shaped” wings of the building enclose the gymnasium,
and there is a glass-walled corridor and “viewing stair” that
act as additional bleacher seating space.
