Phase I of the Albuquerque Veloport, the BMX Pavilion, was completed in early 2007. In addition to serving as the home of Duke City BMX, it provides a state-of-the-art venue for state, regional and national televised competition. Covering nearly two acres, 230 feet clear-span pre-engineered building contains a depressed dirt track flanked by concourses and grandstand seating. The facility is only the second covered track in the country and is the largest. The design features a dramatic entry from the street by way of a radial stair, and a ramp that provides wheelchair access to the upper level plaza. G. Donald Dudley was associate architect.
