Information

Kessler’s plan called for a community center at Brookside Park, but he passed away in 1923 before completing the plans. The city commissioned architectural firm Harrison & Turnock to design the building in 1927 and the next year, Brookside Park Community Center opened its doors. The architects used a classic design style that mimicked the bridges and columns found throughout the city along the Park and Boulevard System. Though quite stunning, it does not overshadow the natural beauty surrounding it but instead blends effortlessly into the landscape.

Inside, the Brookside Park Community Center is truly an architectural marvel. It features arched doorways, tall windows, and intricate stone work.
