Depending on what you are starting with and where you want to end up, retrofiting an exsisting building can actually get to be more expensive then starting all over. That said I hate seeing vacant buildings, so I hope they have something to take over what is serving as the current rec center.... Hold on is there a current rec center?

But you are right, to often things are discard because they are not "new enough" and that is wrong too..... if we all had the best of everything we would never be able to retire.......
