This contemporary amenity center is designed to offer a diverse range of social, recreational, and wellness facilities across a single, thoughtfully laid-out floor. The main lounge area serves as the heart of the space, featuring a sleek linear fireplace set beneath a wall-mounted TV framed by textured wave-panel surrounds, complemented by comfortable seating and abundant natural light from surrounding windows. Adjacent to the lounge, a conference and meeting area provides a large wooden table with ample seating, striking geometric pendant lighting overhead, and a mounted display screen — ideal for collaborative gatherings. The game room offers a spacious, open layout with a billiards table, ping pong table, colorful hexagonal floor accents, exposed ductwork ceilings, and curated wall art, creating an energetic and social atmosphere. A dedicated private screening room features tiered rows of black leather recliner-style seating, acoustic panel walls, a deep red ceiling, and projector equipment for an immersive cinema experience. The fitness facilities are exceptional, comprising a main gym with high ceilings, large glass garage-style doors that flood the space with natural light, and a full array of strength and cardio equipment. A separate yoga and group exercise studio features wood-look flooring, exercise mats, stability balls, and its own oversized glass garage door opening to the outdoors, creating a bright and airy environment for movement and wellness.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
