The entire facility is topped by 9255 m 2 (99,625 sf) of insulated metal standing seam roof panels in gallery blue. The insulated metal panels (IMPs), which total 2930 m 2 (31,538 sf), were specified in metallic regal gray. The center’s exterior implements a combination of 50-mm (2-in.) corrugated metal panels and 76-mm (3-in.) insulated metal wall panels integrated seamlessly with a pre-engineered metal building. There was a desire for these two facilities to visually relate to one another, creating a common sports campus language. “The grays and blues of the Finley Center are primarily drawn from the adjacent Hoover Metropolitan Baseball Stadium that has Hoover-city blue roofing and exposed, cast-in-place concrete. “The desire was to create visual excitement both from the exterior and interior as those spaces are engaged,” said Erik Consuegra, project manager from Goodwyn Mills Cawood Architecture. The 13,935-m 2 (150,000-sf) indoor venue sports 11 basketball and 17 volleyball courts, a walking track, rock-climbing course, meeting rooms, and a food court and kitchen. The project’s modern design includes an all-metal façade featuring more than 9290 m 2 (100,000 sf) of insulated metal wall and roof panels. The Finley Center sports complex in Hoover, Alabama, provides a unique blend of multi-functional space for community sports, fitness, conventions, and entertainment.
