JAIR LYNCH Development Partners, as part of a joint venture with Alpha Corporation, acted as a development manager for the DC Department of Parks and Recreation in the development of this 14,750 square foot community recreation center. The facility features energy efficient technology and construction materials, and was the first public building in the District of Columbia to achieve a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEEDŽ) Silver Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. The state-of-the-art facility includes a gym, workout room and meeting space, with fields outside and a bio-pond for water collection. The neighborhood was so thrilled by the project that it publicly recognized the JAIR LYNCH development manager for his work.
