As the Riverhead campus of Suffolk County Community College grew, so did the need for an indoor athletic facility for students to meet their physical education requirements. The team of H2M and ikon.5 was selected to design the facility, which was completed in 2019.

Inspired by its location in the eastern end of the Long Island Pine Barrens, the facility is conceived as a stand of pine trees on the southern edge of campus; its biophilic façade development and wellness program promote healthful living.

The facility has an eight-lane indoor swimming and diving pool with a separate spectator area; full locker facilities; an 11,560-square-foot gymnasium with an indoor perimeter track; two state-of-the-art classrooms with a movable partition for group instruction; a food serving area off the main lobby; and an elevated strength training area with a rock climbing wall off the main lobby.

The facility is ADA-compliant, sustainable, and available for the surrounding schools and communities to use for swim classes, special events, and conventions.
