From Saturday's island trip.

I don’t know if this is common knowledge but Unity Fitness is opening on the second level of the podium here this Fall. 40,000sf.

No. Thanks.

So close to being “finished”. One little bit of white siding probably needs some customization on the transfer slab level. Pictures from Sept 20 and current as of today.

Huh, there's a Toronto run community centre across the street offering similar things. Not a bad thing to have more of this and give people options though.

Proximity to a community centre isn't going to get you out of amenity provision in a new build...

 

[tripwire]

Is it an amenity provision? It seemed like a commercial venture (like GoodLife Fitness).

If it is a Goodlife they may provide complementary membership. That is what they do at 25 Ordinance with Altea Active (or at least used to do last time I checked)

That community centre over at One Yonge doesnt have a large fitness facility, but rather a very small fitness "room". So not really similar offerings.

“Finished” from an outsider’s perspective.

We were there for a swimming class on the weekend and it's already pretty busy. I imagine that once all those towers are occupied there'll be plenty of room for a Goodlife.

There's no space in the existing Pinnacle building to open up a gym anywhere close to that size. The most that could be done would be to convert some of those Flex Rooms into a somewhat useful fitness room.

Another gym will be opening next door in the podium of the Sugar Wharf office building, but they'll be charging people premium $$$$ (even more expensive than Goodlife).

Goodlife is already one of the cheapest gym chains! I'd be more concerned if it was a Sweat and Tonic, Altea, or Barrys.
