The recreation complex expansion involves constructing a new building adjacent to the existing center, named the “FIELD HOUSE.” This facility will offer multifunctional space for events, meetings, and recreation programs, as well as indoor, semi-outdoor, and outdoor pickleball courts.

Both projects are scheduled to begin early next year and are targeted for completion by October 2026.

The City of Fairview Heights plans to provide further updates as the developments progress.
