    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the construction of the təməsew̓txʷ Aquatic and Community Centre in New Westminster, B.C. The center was built to replace a parking lot and includes an Olympic-sized lap pool, a lazy river, fitness rooms, and childcare facilities. It is the city's most expensive capital project to date, costing $107 million. The facility is also the first aquatic center in the country to earn a zero-carbon design designation, partially running on solar panels and featuring a wood-heavy design. The center has been well-received by the community and has the support of local Indigenous groups, with its name meaning "sea otter house" in the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ language. [Extracted from the article]
