Woodlawn
After 10 years of utilizing temporary squash court and classroom space, MetroSquash constructed a permanent home at the corner of 61st and Cottage Grove Avenue. Located in the Woodlawn neighborhood and opened in April 2015, the center was built thanks to $8M of generous support from the Chicago’s civic and squash community. The Hussain MetroSquash Center is Chicago’s largest squash facility and features 7 singles squash courts, 1 doubles squash court, 4 classrooms, staff office, and a social work office.
