Construction nearly complete on Stapleton Central Park Rec Center

 A week ago I had the opportunity to visit the nearly-complete Central Park Recreation Center at Stapleton, and to tour and take photos.  The Rec Center is pretty special to me, as I've been involved in its design since 2006 as a member and past-Chairman of the Stapleton Parks Advisory Group.  It has been nearly 5 years since I attended meetings in residents' homes to talk about the Center's design, amenities, traffic flow, even the positioning of the building on the site.  I wrote letters to the Mayor to press for construction, and campaigned to make sure the Center was included in the funding bond initiative.

Now we're just weeks away from completion of the Center and its opening is expected to come at the end of January.  As a board member of the Stapleton Development Corporation I got to tour the facility last week, and I posted a bunch of photos on Facebook (www.facebook.com/kearnsteam).
