Recognizing that parts of the Fairbank Community Center roof are in serious disrepair and that both the Sudbury Senior Center and the Sudbury Park and Recreation Department are experiencing serious growing pains and really need additional space for their programming; the Town of Sudbury created the Fairbank Community Center Task Force. On the advice of the Fairbank Community Center Task Force, the Town of Sudbury hired architectural firm BH+A Architects to assess the building’s integrity, current use, projected future use and adaptability to either renovation or expansion.
