Community center run by the Bloomington Parks and Recreation Department, located on West 7th Street. The Center hosts kids and youth for after school, evening and Summer events.

The building was originally the Banneker School, which was built in 1915 and also known as the Colored School. Many African-American families lived in the area, because it was near the Showers Brothers Factory that employed people of all colors.
