History
The Natatorium was completed in 1982. Counsilman-Hunsaker served as the design consultant for the project. The architects were Browning, Day, Pollack & Mullins, Inc. and Edward Larabee Barnes, Architects.
The facility was host to the USA Olympic Diving Trials in 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, 2008, 2016, and 2020. It hosted the USA Olympic Swimming Trials in 1984, 1992, 1996, and 2000. In addition, the Natatorium building houses the IUPUI Recreation Program in the basement of the facility, including the Polaris weight room which was built in 1996.[citation needed]
Popularly known as IUPUI, this facility has been host to numerous other swim events including the 1982 National Sports Festival, the 1987 Pan American Games, 2001 World Police and Fire Games, NCAA Championships, USA Swimming National Championships, and the Big Ten Championships. Additionally, in July 2009, IUPUI hosted one of USA Swimming's most elite competitions, the 2009 ConocoPhillips National Championships.[4]
As part of the agreement for being selected to host the 2016 USA Diving Olympic Trials, the Natatorium underwent roughly $18 million in renovation and repairs before 2016. The project included a new roof and improved climate control. According to local television station WTHR, "the venue cost $21 million to build in 1982, and would cost nearly $75 million to replace."[5]
