Discovery Homes, City celebrate “Discovery Homes Dream Courts”
By Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce
As Pittsburg reacts to the news of Target’s closing, there’s another story unfolding: Discovery Homes’ groundbreaking of the “Dream Courts” sports complex. In times when one major entity is stepping back, another is significantly investing in our community’s future.
This juxtaposition — a company departing versus another doubling down on Pittsburg — offers a balanced narrative.
Discovery Homes, in partnership with the city of Pittsburg, is thrilled to announce the groundbreaking of the much-anticipated “Dream Courts” – a state-of- the-art, 41,000 square foot multi-court sports complex in Pittsburg. This landmark initiative embodies the spirit of collaboration and community commitment toward fostering sports, wellness, and communal activities.
The groundbreaking ceremony was held Tuesday morning, September 26, 2023, at John Henry Johnson Park on W. Leland Road, with a host of city dignitaries, and community leaders in attendance.

Situated at the park, the Discovery Homes Dream Courts are set to redefine the city’s sports infrastructure, providing residents and sports enthusiasts alike with world-class facilities and amenities. Designed meticulously with the latest in sports technology, the courts promise to offer a premier sporting experience.
“I am thrilled to see the construction of the Dream Courts begin,” said Mayor Shanelle Scales-Preston. “This project headlines the immense efforts of my colleagues on the City Council and I to bring new opportunities to the youth and young adults in our Pittsburg community. We are also greatly appreciative to Discovery Homes for their efforts and contributions to see this project come to life.”
“Building homes has always been about creating spaces where memories are made and communities flourish. With the Dream Courts, we’re extending our philosophy to public spaces. It’s more than just courts—it’s a vision for an energetic, communal, and vibrant Pittsburg,” Albert Seeno III of Discovery Homes stated. “Our commitment at Discovery Homes has always been to enhance the lives of the residents in the communities we serve, and the Dream Courts are a testament to that pledge.”

I think the news of the Pittsburg target closing is terrible for the city. Strange how I haven’t read anything about stealing at our store. I want to build up our city, not shut it down.
thanks a lot of information goodjobs
