Avara converted a 2,000 SF space on the 6th floor of the Harbor Steps apartment complex, transforming it from an unused swimming pool room into a state-of-the-art fitness center. This project required extensive structural modifications, including the creation of a reinforced platform to fill the void left by the former pool.
To execute this complex renovation, Avara engineered an innovative solution by pumping concrete from street level to the 6th floor, ensuring a seamless and durable foundation for the new gym. The result is a modern, well-equipped fitness facility designed to provide residents with a high-end, convenient workout space within their building.
Key Project Highlights:
- Innovative Structural Engineering – Designed and implemented a reinforced platform to repurpose the former pool space into a solid gym foundation.
- Advanced Concrete Pumping Solution – Street-to-6th-floor concrete pumping to create a smooth and durable transition for the fitness center.
- State-of-the-Art Equipment & Layout – Fully equipped with free weights, cardio machines, functional training stations, and strength equipment.
- Modern & Industrial Aesthetic – Open ceilings with exposed ductwork, sleek lighting, and mirrored accent walls to enhance space and visibility.
- Resident-Focused Wellness Design – A thoughtfully planned facility that promotes health, fitness, and community engagement.
Through strategic engineering, problem-solving, and meticulous execution, Avara delivered a high-performance fitness center that enhances the wellness and lifestyle experience for Harbor Steps residents.
