I love the Independence Civic Center. This facility is home to the recreation center and community…read morecenter, as well as a branch of the Cuyahoga County Public Library (separate listing). The convenience of having all these facilities in one place cannot be oversold. On the rec side there is an indoor swimming pool with hot tub, sauna, steam room, and children's pool, locker rooms, pool table, gymnasium, racquetball court, running track, cardio and strength training equipment, as well as a studio for classes. The membership is limited to Independence residents, and is extremely affordable. They also offer a variety of classes and programs, which cost extra but are mostly cheap. The community side has several meeting rooms that can be rented out and configured to different sizes, a childcare room, and a lounge with couches, piano, and fire place. My favorite part of this facility is the center courtyard with two-story glass walls. It really brightens up both the community side and recreation side, and makes working out so much more pleasant, especially in the winter.

My African American friend (I'll call her "R") and I entered the Independence Civic Center and felt…read moreunwelcomed from the start. As we entered the doors, a group of teenage girls immediately gave her condescending looks up and down. After walking past them, I turned around to see them laughing, pointing, and taking pictures of her. In addition, when we approached the front desk, (with smiles and positive attitudes) we were met by 2 very nice, welcoming ladies. However, one lady (I'm assuming a manager of some sort) (short, gray hair, and glasses) came out of the back room to assist us. She was happy to assist me, but the second she noticed "R," her whole demeanor changed. She was rude and short with us from that moment on. I am DISGUSTED by this BLATANT racism and discrimination in 2019!!! All in all, I would NOT recommend this establishment to anyone. It's definitely worth your while to drive down the road a little bit and find a rec center that won't discriminate you based on the color of your skin.
