CHICAGO (CBS) — Chicago’s Southside will soon be home to a brand new, indoor track. It will be the first of its kind in the city.
The $28 million facility will feature a multi-level, six-lane track, sprint lanes, as well as long and high jump spaces.
The sports facility will allow athletes to train year-round, there for the groundbreaking ceremony Sunday for the new venue in Chicago’s Pullman neighborhood.
The facility will also house one of the first neighborhood-based “After School Matters” programs, which provides mentors and other activities for students.
