Project Description
The City of Englewood is collaborating withOLCto renew the Englewood Recreation Center. The upcoming renovation plans include several exciting improvements, including a refreshed locker room, enhanced pool facilities, and a hot tub.
Due to unforeseen costs, pickleball courts at the Englewood Recreation Center (ERC) will no longer be part of the Renew & Recreate project. These funds will be redistributed to installing an updated elevator in the facility, adding a cold plunge to the new hot tub/spa area and updating the floor tile in the main hallway. Redistributing funds did not come lightly, but the decision was made with our residents in mind. Creating a welcoming environment for all is the top priority.
While it might be disappointing to see the ERC pickleball courts removed, there are new pickleball courts being installed at Belleview Park. The ERC courts would have required an Englewood Recreation membership to be utilized, while the courts on the west side of Belleview Park will be free to use. Also, there are free courts at Colorado's Finest High School of Choice at 300 W. Chenango Avenue that Englewood residents can utilize for free as well.
In March 2017, Englewood City Council adopted the Parks and Recreation Master Plan to serve as a road map for future park development/redevelopment and provide a balance of facilities, amenities and recreation programs for the next 10 years.
In July 2023, the Department of Parks, Recreation, Library and Golf updated the 2017 Master Plan Recommendations Sections (Chapter 3) to outline key improvements to Englewood's parks, opens spaces and facilities to meet the current needs and issues of the community.

Over the next three years and beyond, $41.5 million will be invested in parks and recreation through the bond projects approved by Englewood voters. General Obligation Bonds require 85% of the work to be completed within three years, so the majority of projects are expected to be finished by 2028.
Thanks to your support, the city is investing in vibrant parks and recreation for everyone, now and into the future, through the Renew & Recreate campaign. Funded by the Parks and Recreation Bond, this initiative includes major upgrades to parks, playgrounds, recreation facilities and trails.
