by Kristin Harlow May 10, 2019

PLAINFIELD, ILL. — Wight & Co. has completed the Prairie Activity and Recreation Center (PARC) for the Plainfield Park District.

A net-zero building is one in which the amount of energy used by the building on an annual basis is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created onsite. PARC features 28,600 square feet of solar panels. The two-story building includes a 4,000-square-foot fitness center and studio with a full-size basketball court, walking track and a 1,600-square-foot multipurpose room for classes and special events. A preschool suite features four classrooms.
