The Scranton Jewish Community Center (JCC) in Scranton, Pennsylvania, partnered with Wallover Architects to renovate and modernize its indoor swimming facility. Completed in Fall 2015, the project reflects a thoughtful approach to accessibility, energy efficiency, and user comfort, creating a revitalized aquatic environment for members of all ages.

As part of the renovation, the facility now features:
ADA-Compliant Access Upgrades
Including a vertical platform chair lift to provide access from the facility to the pool deck, as well as a swim lift to ensure safe water entry for patrons with mobility limitations.
Dehumidification System
An independent, state-of-the-art pool dehumidification system improves indoor air quality and enhances comfort for swimmers and spectators.
New Filtration System
The outdated filtration system was replaced with a modern, high-efficiency system, delivering crystal-clear water and operational reliability.
To improve the overall visual and environmental quality of the natatorium:
Energy-Efficient Windows
The original glass block windows were replaced with larger, energy-efficient windows, bringing in more natural light while reducing heat loss and utility costs.
New Interior Finishes
Updated materials throughout the space provide a bright, modern atmosphere that enhances the user experience and supports a welcoming community setting.
This renovation project reflects the Scranton JCC’s commitment to inclusion, wellness, and sustainability. With accessible entryways, improved climate control, and a clean, updated interior, the facility now better serves its diverse membership and supports a wide range of recreational, therapeutic, and fitness programs.
