The new Sun Devil Fitness Complex combines academic spaces with a rich array of recreation functions in a distinctive five-story structure that serves as ASU’s signature facility on the western edge of its campus in downtown Phoenix. Located directly south of and connected to the YMCA at its first floor, the SDFC embodies the type of cooperative business partnership that is a strategic goal of ASU’s downtown institution. Academic functions are housed in the 18,000 SF second floor, and include classrooms and labs for kinesiology and wellness programs. A 25-yard swimming pool, locker rooms and a multi-purpose room occupy the top level of the building. A multi-purpose gymnasium and jogging track, administrative offices, activity rooms, and cardio/fitness/weight training spaces are all housed in the facility. LEED™ Gold Certification was achieved.
