It also offers locker rooms, lavatories, and showers for added convenience. Curious about the name? It’s a tribute to J.B. Carr, a figure whose contributions to MIT athletics resonate within these walls. Imagine the echoes of volleys and cheers within this bubble, a testament to duPont’s enduring impact on MIT’s athletic landscape. W53 Carr Indoor Tennis isn’t merely a building. It’s a vibrant hub where MIT’s men’s and women’s tennis teams hone their skills. It’s a space where students, faculty, and staff can enjoy a friendly match, escaping the hustle and bustle of campus life.
