PHOENIX — A West Valley suburb broke ground on Tuesday on a new multi-use recreation center.

The Goodyear Recreation Campus will include a 48,000-square-foot recreation facility, 30-acre park and a playground.

“This has been an undertaking of epic proportions,” Vice Mayor Bill Stipp said in the release. “It is certainly going to serve us for decades, and generations after generation will enjoy this campus.”

The facility will be located at West Estrella Street and South Harrison Parkway.
