ROWING TANK
DEERFIELD ACADEMY, DEERFIELD, MA

Working with Sasaki Associates and Inriver Tank and Boat, Peterson Architects designed a new 8-person moving-water rowing tank in the newly renovated and expanded Deerfield Academy Athletic Complex.  The tank provides the academy’s rowers, winners of a number of recent national championships, with a venue to row indoors.  The tank is configured in a “race track” configuration with the ends covered over, allowing fast but calm water. This new facility allows coaches the opportunity to work directly with rowers to make technical adjustments to their rowing stroke.
