As a result, QA+M Architecture developed its design of the proposed 75,000-square-foot town hall and community center to be built in the upper town hall parking lot. The new building allows for improved resident access to Town Services, an open floor plan, and a reduction of 28,000 square feet from Newington’s existing deteriorating and leaky town hall.

The community center space includes two full-sized basketball courts. The plan provides more storage spaces and a discrete entrance for human services and board of education offices with an open floor plan, Town Council chambers, community television and the Transition Academy. In the preliminary plan, the existing Town Hall will remain in operation while construction is going on.
