Money for the project will come from the Measure M surplus funds
Residents in downtown Pittsburg will soon have a space to enjoy such recreational activities as basketball, karate, fitness classes and indoor pickleball among others.
Work first began on building a downtown community center in 1972, and over the next 30 years, the building was used for senior services, summer programs afterschool programs, classes, a preschool, city and county offices and more. But in 2002, the city leased the property to Contra Costa County to operate the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Academy, which finally came to an end in December of last year. Months earlier the city had notified the county it would not extend the lease again as the council had decided it was time to bring the site back for recreational and educational purposes.
As currently configured, the Marina Community Center contains two large classrooms, which could be used for anything from dance and fitness to training and workshop space, along with a full gymnasium, which SImonton said could be used for basketball, volleyball and pickleball.
