The Y in Druid Hill is a clean, up-to-date facility that I frequently visit to lift free weights and use cardio equipment. It's seldom crowded but other guests are friendly. The staff is extraordinarily friendly, courteous, helpful, and diligent. The facility also has an interesting history as it's where eminent African-Americans from Baltimore such as Thurgood Marshall and Cab Calloway learned to swim.

Location is accessible and clean; prices are more reasonable than other locations (probably because of the location); and, the people are amazingly warm and will help anyone. Typical inner city parking but the entire experience erases any disquietude. The best part....they positively contribute to an unbalanced part of the city. Best, much needed location in B-more, imo.

The place was very nice starting off til some gang members told me I had to pay $5 to play ball an that Sharon is the enforcer of that an I yelled three a window, I am a member , I'm suppose to have that access already.12-1-17 . This was the gym I grew up in. . Dru hill is a gang members gym, being ran by Sharon on drive hill ymca. No wonder a blackman can't own stuff due to people like Sharon over the ymca on dru hill. Where's the extra money going to that's being charge by gang members an forced by Sharon, broke machines an much more.
