Why does the YMCA need “swing space”?
In order to keep the YMCA open during construction, many programs will move to temporary swing space. Part of that swing space will be in the former lobby of the YMCA Hotel and Residence, and the other part will be in the new floor of the 1910 Building. The programs in the 1960 Building—aerobics, cycling, and strength training—will move temporarily to new swing spaces while the seismic retrofit is underway. The existing cardio machines will move into the Family Gym temporarily while we construct a new cardio area.
