O'Pake Fitness and Recreation Center

Saint Joseph's University

Merion Station, PA

Saint Joseph’s University invested in comprehensive improvements to its campus athletic facilities and natatorium to enhance the student-athlete experience and modernize its recreation spaces. The 17-month project included upgrades to athletic locker rooms, showers, training spaces, weight and fitness rooms, a new cardio area, elevators, the natatorium, and outdoor areas.

Working within an active campus and residential neighborhood, LF Driscoll carefully coordinated site logistics, long-lead equipment procurement, pool-area construction, and a campus-wide electrical shutdown to minimize disruption and maintain safety. The project was completed in time for the new academic year, welcoming students back to modernized athletic and recreation facilities.
