这个建筑是由urban think tank设计的垂直健身房，坐落在委内瑞拉首都加拉加斯的欠发达地区。这是将公益性质的户外休闲设计移入低收入地区的成功范例。建筑师针对该地区的青年发育水平设计了这个4层高的公益体育设施，它与该地区市政办公大楼连在一起，共7000平方米。这个建筑在当地的建立是非常了不起的举措，早在委内瑞拉圣克鲁斯地区，政府建立了一所健身房，同年那个地区的犯罪率降低了30个百分点。
在这个地区建造大型公益体育设施有比较大的困难，在这个人口密集的地区，土地使用率不高，土地浪费情况严重。因此，该建筑面临着空间少的问题。好在建筑师们灵活地设计解决了这一问题。从此，在加拉加斯地区，普通家庭也能够享受到运动设施带来的快乐。

architects at urban think tank have managed to insert the beneficial programming of public outdoor recreational areas in the space-hungry low-income urban area of el dorado, a deeply needy area of venezuela's dense capital city of caracas. targeted at the area's youth, the pre-fabricated vertical gym offers 4 layered levels of athletic facilities and, combined with 3 more stories of municipal offices and spaces for local businesses, clocks in at a total of 7000 square meters. while the vertical gym in sucre enjoys the title of the largest sports complex in the country, the potential effect of the consolidated facility on the area is even more remarkable--an earlier iteration of the gym opened in santa cruz in 2004 is credited with a 30 drop in crime rate in the region.
the architecture posits a solution to the problem of the spatial scarcity and the need for conscious programming with a streamlined build-time and highly considered tectonics. the building is flexible enough to fit within or atop existing structures (this version of the gym was built above an extant subterranean parking structure) while still remaining a distinct mark on the urban fabric with polychrome and translucent paneling towering above the modest homes.
