RecPlex Now Open! Virtual Tour Online …

Thousands of children and adults over the decades have made the Anderson Parks RecPlex a part of their lives. Come see what’s new as you take a virtual tour of the changes recently completed at the facility at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueYGPEFLUPE.

Now owned by Anderson Township, the RecPlex is still operated year-round by the Anderson Park District. The building features an updated gym and classroom space, new lighting and HVAC upgrades, and more welcoming and useable classrooms.

Anderson Township purchased a portion of the Beech Acres site, including the RecPlex, in 2019 using TIF revenues derived from new development in the community.  Improvements are being financed by a portion of the township’s and Forest Hills School District’s future property tax revenue derived from the nearby Anthology of Anderson Township senior housing community that opened in 2019. Utilizing the TIF model, both the purchase and renovation of this community asset have been accomplished at no additional tax burden to our residents!
