On October 4th, the Lawncrest Recreation Center marked the beginning of a significant renovation and expansion project as part of Philadelphia’s Rebuild program. This $24.5 million investment in lower northeast Philadelphia will enhance the community center's facilities, outdoor play areas, and athletic offerings, while improving accessibility for all. Mayor Charelle Parker celebrated this milestone alongside State Representative Anthony Bellmon and Councilman Anthony Phillips. SITIO is proud to design this revitalization of a beloved community hub, especially as we approach the ribbon-cutting for the earlier-phased Lawncrest Library next door. Together, the renovation of both stands to foster pride, camaraderie, and growth for the neighborhood.
