NORTH STAFFORD, Va. -- A new indoor aquatics center will be built in North Stafford.
The planned two-story Stafford Sports Center will be a 196,000 square foot building built along Va. 610 between Parkway Boulevard and North Stafford High School. It’ll include a 10-lane swimming pool for competitive activities aimed at attracting high school teams, while another portion of the 23-acre site will include an outdoor field house with four fields and stadium seating, according to county documents.
According to plans, the sports complex will also include retail pad sites for a fast food restaurant, a sit-down eatery, and a pharmacy  that will be built over two phases of construction. The second phase will include additional commercial space but will not be built until Va. 610 is widened to six lanes.
