The City of Columbus Recreation and Parks Department (CRPD) commissioned RKA in early 2025 to plan and design a vibrant renovation of the Beatty Community Center, located in the King-Lincoln Bronzeville neighborhood. After completing existing conditions analysis and programming for the facility, which had previously incurred significant damage in August 2024 associated with a fire in the gymnasium, RKA worked with CRPD leaders and team members to re-envision a fully restored gymnasium and an upgraded interior environment to complement new spaces for skills development and recreational activities. Construction has now begun, and RKA is excited to observe the progress being made this summer on the repair and renovation of this community asset.
