Construction crews making progress on new Ashburn Rec Center

Many residents in Ashburn and the surrounding area are eagerly counting down until 2025 when the mammoth new Ashburn Recreation Center is expected to come online. The Burn has been following its progress for years and now we have a first update on construction.

Loudoun County officials shared that installation has started on the concrete foundations and underground piping for the 117,000 s.f. center on Broadlands Boulevard (located next to Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm)

In the coming weeks, the concrete slabs will be finished up and the steel framing for the walls and roof will begin to go up.

The two-story facility will include a 50-meter pool, as well as a leisure pool. There will be a spa, a full-size gymnasium, a playroom, a multipurpose room with a catering and teaching kitchen, and more.

Outdoors features include a trail around the property, a courtyard with seating, a splash play area and a playground.

Completion is expected in the summer of 2025. Once it’s complete (or nearly complete) the folks from the Loudoun parks department can move in and start preparing for opening day.
