Cheney Aquatic Center

Cheney, Wash.
Construction Cost: $12.4
Area / Square Feet: 14,268
Occupancy Date: July 2025

Located in a public park, Cheney Aquatic Center is set to become a vibrant hub for recreation and community connection. Following years of planning, construction on the $12.4 million project began in summer 2024. The 5,313-square-foot leisure pool features zero-depth entry and interactive elements, including a river with a vortex, a nature-themed island and spray features. Basketball hoops and an obstacle course promote skill-building and keep guests entertained, while a waterslide tower offers two unique experiences. A six-lane, 25-yard lap pool includes starting blocks and a diving area to support both lap swimming and short-course competitions. Complementing these traditional amenities, a climbing wall and Aqua Zip’n add extra excitement. The 5,000-square-foot bathhouse and a community meeting room further establish this as a true gathering place. With sustainability woven into thoughtful details — from xeriscape landscaping to regenerative media filtration — the facility reflects a long-term investment in both people and the environment.
