(Beaver Falls, PA) Geneva College has developed a new athletic and academic space known as the Riverfront Property, a 21-acre site along the eastern edge of campus near the Beaver River.

The property, located off 7th Ave. Extension near Reeves Field and Conrady Softball Field, includes an office complex and a large warehouse facility with high ceilings that has been adapted for athletic training.

College officials said the warehouse is now used by track and field athletes for training activities such as throws, sprints and hurdles.

The approximately $9.3 million property was donated to Geneva College in 2022 by AES Realty, LLC. It spans 21 acres from just south of the Eastvale Bridge to the northern edge of campus.

Officials said the space will support athletics, engineering programs, recreation and community partnerships.

“This is the largest gift ever given to Geneva College. Its potential to impact athletics, provide recreational space for all students, and strengthen the engineering program is incredible,” says Marv Dewey, EdD, retiring president of the Geneva College Foundation. “Improving this area of the campus is a high priority in Geneva’s strategic plan and doing so will likely be a major focus in Geneva’s next campaign.”
