The grand opening of the city of Lewisville’s 87,000-square-foot multigenerational center, Thrive, has been rescheduled from May 30 to early October due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, according to city officials.
The facility, located at 1950 S. Valley Parkway, Lewisville, will feature a natatorium, gymnasiums, an indoor walking track, a fitness area, community rooms, an indoor playground and more than 14,000 square feet of space for senior activities.
Though city officials say construction on Thrive is “largely on schedule," there have been minor delays due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Construction is expected to be completed in May.
“We know there is tremendous excitement in the community about Thrive, and we want to open as soon as we can,” Mayor Rudy Durham said in an April 14 statement. “Our top priority has to be the safety and well-being of our residents, visitors, and staff during this unprecedented time. That, combined with serious financial challenges that still are not fully known, will delay us but won’t stop us from giving residents the multigenerational recreation center that they want and deserve.”
