Royals Rise: A Decade of Athletics at the Levine Center
When the Ovens Athletic Center was razed in 2011 to make way for a new facility, a promising era of success was born for Queens Athletics and student-athletes. Opened in 2013, a lead giſt from Leon and Sandra Levine of The Leon Levine Foundation bestowed the new building its name: The Levine Center for Wellness and Recreation. Over the past 10 years, the three-story facility has become a popular campus location where students and the community come to enjoy wellness, recreation, and athletic programs.
