Two lifelong tennis players are inflating Pontiac’s relationship with the sport with the development of the Wessen Indoor Tennis Club, a $2 million indoor facility with two domes featuring both clay and hard courts.
Landscaping work and the construction of a lobby are continuing at the club, which quietly opened late last year just across the Clinton River from the private Wessen Lawn Tennis Club, a redevelopment of the historic former Hayes Jones Community Center with the same playing surface as Wimbledon.
