Olathe Community Center
OLATHE, KANSAS
Selected by the City of Olathe, Kansas as part of a multi-disciplinary team, Confluence is leading the site planning and landscape architectural components of an iconic new community center facility. This facility will be located within the City’s historic Stagecoach Park, a signature destination park located in the heart of the community.
The community center is anticipated to include indoor aquatics, a gymnasium, fitness area, wellness center, several community rooms, and child play areas, and is being designed to achieve LEED Silver certification. Additional site features will include ample parking, pedestrian trail connections, a sprayground area, and adjacent patio spaces and interpretive park areas that extend the use of this facility into the surrounding park environs.
Extensive design and planning efforts are being undertaken to properly nestle this proposed facility and related site improvements into the existing passive park’s rolling terrain, mature trees, and water features. Confluence has also been charged with creating a new master plan for the entire park, providing an opportunity to consider additional creative enhancements and park improvements that can be implemented over time to address the community’s short and long-term needs. Our work also includes assisting with City Council and stakeholder involvement throughout the design and planning process.
