Brand new and well maintained. Parking has never been a problem. There is a large lot next to the building. A welcomed addition to the community. Truly looking forward to them expanding their programming as they grow. The staff is very helpful! Love it there!

I just join the YMCA at the North East side of the bronx, n i am very happy about it. I really love the pools, specially the family time scheduled, and the water is clean n warm. The private bathrooms, the showers n the closed cubicles to change are well kept clean. I love it n i give it a hands up to the staff, reception desk, house keeping personnel. Well keep up the good work.

Literally the best. No words can describe how good the YMCA is! The people are the kindest, every activity will catch your eye, and there are so many things to do! From baking to working out, and swimming to going to the gym! The YMCA has it all. Right now at 6 I'm going swimming with my mom and my sister and it will be amazing, I know it. They also have swimming lessons and HUGE locker rooms! Can't wait

As a parent: My children 12 & 10 LIVE the Y. We utilize just about every aspect they have to offer. Between both kids they have taken the ballet, karate, basketball, swimming lessons, and cooking classes, my son now uses the fitness center as well as my wife and I. The youth programs have been one of the largest benefits for my family.As for the staff, myself included, can be very hit or miss. I believe we all are friendly, knowledgeable, approachable people. However, there are a few who can be sarcastic 🙋🏼 (#sorrynotsorry), have attitudes, or just be having a day. We're all human. Error & miscommunication happen everywhere.As a member; I believe the facility to be a marvel. The architecture is amazing the bond with nature the building has is mesmerizing. I have been a member of the YMCA for basically my entire life. I have family that works at the YMCA outside of NYC. And I have never seen a facility as up to date, as clean and upkept as this one. As long as we as a community keep this place immaculate it will be here, beautiful and available for generations to come.

Finally! a YMCA in the Northeast of the Bronx...Yippee 🤗This is a 'state of the art' YMCA the gym has great equipment that are 'top of the line', the swimming pools could be larger but they are still great.There's a large basketball court and facility occupies 3 floors not counting the basement rooms which are use for summer school programs..there are alot of exercise classes available for everyone young or old.I gave 4stars, because the method of signing up for classes needs to be revisited🤭......but apart from that BEAUTIFUL facility!

I love the YMCA. My 9yr old grandson and I are members. We both love to come there. He loves to play basketball and I love to do Aqua Aroebics and Lap swimming. There are also things we like to do together like box and workout in the small workout room. I am so glad you're in the neighborhood we intend to take full advantage of what the YMCA has to offer. The staff is also pretty friendly!!!😊 It's worth the travel to get there!

This new fitness and educational facility located in the northeast Bronx opened with fanfare on October 21 2021 with guest speakers Vice President Karmala Harris and NY Governor Kathy Hochul, to name a few. This state-of-the-art complex features a variety of meeting rooms, fitness rooms, a large lap pool, a wading pool, gymnasium, steam room, sauna and more. The full potential and scope of this facility are yet to be realized as the complex is not fully staff at this time. For example, the facility features a state-of-the-art kitchen classroom that would have chef Ramsay drooling with envy. They are currently looking for a chef to lead the program. This complex is truly impressive and is certain to attract members from local area fitness centers. Watch out Blink and Planet Fitness.
