    The basketball court has very poor grip and appears to never be waxed, which makes it feel unsafe and increases the risk of injury.

    Membership at the Y does more than just a gym membership,you are supporting a non profit that has reaches throughout the city. As a member you can see the sense of community that has been fostered by the outreach.

    Got a membership expecting a normal YMCA experience (i.e., not an equinox experience), but even then I have to say it’s disappointing. Cockroaches observed in the men’s locker room - really really gross! Broken fitness machines persist - Peloton bikes have been out of service for multiple months, and other aerobic equipment is broken in the “aerobics studio.” Seems like a lack of willingness to invest in the member experience. Might be good for childcare, I don’t know, but if you’re looking for a gym I would recommend you spend $50/month individual membership fee elsewhere.
