Project Descriptionj p
The Hourglass Park Field House is a joint use project with the City of San Diego. This state‐of‐the‐art, fully‐equipped facility
provides a gymnasium, fitness center, classrooms, dance rooms, lecture rooms, office space, laundry areas, multi‐purpose
areas and a concession stand. It is the third phase of a 32‐acre complex that includes a three‐pool aquatics center and
multi‐sport ball fields. The facilities serve college students through athletics and instructional program offerings and area
residents through Park & Recreation activities. The project is designed to obtain a LEED (Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) certification from the US Green Building Council (USGBC).
Sustainability Features
High energy performance of the building envelope and HVAC
elements by adding additional insulation at roofs and walls, adding
lighting occupancy sensors, and air handlers for the HVAC units that
tili l i d i t id iutilize cool morning and evening outside air.
High‐efficiency irrigation system uses reclaimed water to support
drought‐tolerant landscaping. Combined with waterless and low‐flow
plumbing fixtures, the Field House saves hundreds of thousands of
gallons of water compared to a typically‐built project.
E t i (20%) f l d t i l i l di hi h l l fExtensive (20%) use of recycled materials, including high level of
post‐consumer materials in steel elements and recycled tires in
rubber gymnasium flooring.
Over 50% of wood on the project is certified by the Forestry Steward
Council as responsibly harvested.
N h t b bi fi t i l h l iti t “h t i l d ”Non‐heat absorbing roofing materials help mitigate “heat islands.”
Indoor air quality maximized by the use of materials with low
chemical content, and increased outside air ventilation.
