Safe Space Rising in Southside Newtown | Virginia Beach News
Description
A new $3 million recreation center in Southside Newtown, Portsmouth, is nearly ready to open its doors by mid-October, offering a safe haven for youth amid rising gun violence. Designed by founder Eugene Swinson, the 11,000-square-foot facility will feature an indoor gym and food pantry, targeting local neighborhoods like those near Westhaven Elementary—where recent gunfire left residents shaken and fearful. More than just a gym, this multi-purpose space aims to provide refuge, resources, and a constructive alternative for kids and families facing tough times.
