Top two courtesy of Wooddale Fun Zone. I love the design of those rails! Truly inventive! Updated rink with Sky Blue and Arctic Green.
Courtesy by various fans of the rink on Google Map. Noticed the rails. Good. Now, noticed they painted the walls. For example, bottom version showed it is Green on the left end of the wall. compared to the 4th photo from bottom that it showed Pink. They seem to evolved a few times.

Woodbury Recreation Center was the original name for this facility as seen on Skating Fitness, a website. So, I have no further information related to that name. Was it the same owner as the Wooddale Recreation Center and the current Wooddale FunZone? The Wooddale FunZone is at the 2122 Wooddale Drive in Saint Paul, MN. Apparently it was a name change because I do not see any thing that really separate the ownership but added the Tennis and Health as another form of fitness. It is practically next door.
They did have name change but now they are dead rinks because of COVID pamdemic lockdowns that killed the business like this one at Wooddale Fun Zone and Recreation Center.
They added the Tennis section at some point.
They have two buildings. And both are quite different. The roller rink building is a Gable roof Free Span Steel sheet walls Warehouse like building in off-White color with Blue trims. That is for the current edition of the facility. It is connected to the main door section with the Tennis and Health Center with Arched roof. It has the same materials and same structure format as the rink but much larger, taller to house tennis.
Someone said on Yelp that the rink floor was changed. He did not say what material it was before but the current one is Pour Concrete and reduced in size to give more room. The snack bar was doubled in its size and moved arcade games by the lockers. The photos showed me that it IS concrete. I can tell with the seams. It had
The floor does look Ice Blue or Sky Blue color. Looks like an Ice Rink but it was not. The appearance of size looks large enough to be close to NHL size rink. No information on the size of the floor though.
The rails are most interesting I ever seen! Not straight boring ones like I seen at other rinks on my site. This one really borders each sections! Like it has rails going out onto the floor then straight, then back into the carpet area. Kind of like overlapping. Really cool design. I love it! It does give that 1970s feel of design.
The ceiling is also quite interesting too. It appeared to be hip but it is not. It is Gable but part of the ceiling ends that way and its flat ceiling. It does look low hung too.
Again, this is just name changed but same rink, period.
