Lexington Senior Center

At 33,000 square feet, the facility is nearly twice as large as the former. Seniors enjoy planned programs including art activities, educational classes, recreational (dance and exercise) classes, a game area, cafes, and library.

The center is designed to accommodate senior lifestyles including short corridors between program spaces (long corridors can be intimidating to those with limited mobility). A viewing area and open windows above the auditorium space allows seniors to observe activities happening elsewhere while offering a quiet spot for conversation.

The exercise room has top-of-the-line equipment including a changing area with shower, and is a short distance from the billiards area. The art room is stocked with paints and chalks, and the kitchen allows cooking demonstrations and dining. Music, dancing, cards, billiards, and reading are also offered.

The center space is sprinkled with numerous small spaces and conference rooms. Outdoor, there is a gated veranda with seating areas. The center overlooks and established park which was also improved with pickle ball courts and baseball fields.
