Newburgh, NY – Dec 16, 2025 – <\/strong>O’Connor Company<\/a>, a leading name in commercial construction specializing in delivering high-quality projects across diverse sectors, has announced the completion of the Newburgh Recreation Center, a dynamic new space designed to promote year-round physical activity, youth engagement, and community programming in the Hudson Valley.<\/p>\n

Funded by the City of Newburgh, the new facility was built to replace an aging and underutilized civic building. The revitalized center now provides residents with a modern indoor environment that supports basketball, soccer, walking, childcare programs, and seasonal events, especially critical during colder months when outdoor access is limited.<\/p>\n

“From the beginning, we focused on user experience, how the space would feel, flow, and serve residents of all ages,” said Ken Welman<\/a>, Senior Project Manager at O’Connor Company. “We worked closely with the city to ensure this wasn’t just a construction job—it was an investment in Newburgh’s future.”<\/p>\n

The 26,400-square-foot space features two full-sized basketball\/volleyball\/pickleball courts, a multipurpose turf field, a walking track, recreation department offices, childcare rooms, restrooms, mechanical upgrades, new lighting, and flexible community rooms. Local youth will benefit from enhanced recreational programs and after-school services, while families can enjoy a safe, climate-controlled venue for fitness and social events.<\/p>\n

In line with O’Connor Company’s focus on sustainability and local partnerships, the project incorporated energy-efficient systems and relied on regional subcontractors and suppliers wherever possible. The result is a space built to last and built to serve.<\/p>\n

“This was more than just delivering a building on time and on budget,” said Clark Lowe<\/a>, President and CEO. “It was about delivering a center that could anchor this community for years to come, offering flexibility and reliability no matter the season.”<\/p>\n

Momentum continues to build for similar community-oriented projects in the region, with the Newburgh Recreation Center now serving as a blueprint for how thoughtful design and construction can address real public needs. The facility is already being booked for events, programs, and league activities in 2025.<\/p>\n
