The Civita Recreation Center, which is reserved for the exclusive use of Civita homeowners and their guests, is a sprawling 2.5-acre resort destination with award-winning architecture and top-notch amenities. Outside, the beautifully designed and landscaped facility features a lagoon pool, a lap pool, two spas and picnic areas. The dramatic 8,790-square-foot clubhouse is equipped with a game room, multipurpose room, teaching kitchen, and a 3,700-square-foot fitness club.
The heart of the walkable community is the beautiful 14-acre Civita Park, which cascades down the former gravel quarry, creating a distinctive greenspace and play space. Civita Park features flowering gardens, an amphitheater, open fields and half basketball courts, “outdoor living rooms,” an interactive fountain, a community garden, a dog park, and trails.
The final phases of the park, including two playgrounds, additional picnic areas and gardens, are scheduled to open in 2020.
Civita is being developed by Sudberry Properties in partnership with the Grant family, which has owned the former quarry site since the early 1900s.
Civita’s emphasis on walkability is creating a community that blends the intimacy of a village with the vitality of an urban hub. As the community matures, residents will be within easy walking distance of everyday conveniences, restaurants, entertainment venues, grocery shopping, movie theaters, and shops. The first shops and an LA Fitness gym are scheduled to open next year.
Ultimately, a pedestrian bridge over Friars Road will provide easy access to the nearby trolley station. In the meantime, Civita operates a free shuttle bus during rush hours.
