Recreational Facilities
East Boston YMCA
Originally an old railroad engine repair house, this building had a second floor built into its tall open space to enlarge the facility to 19,000 square feet. While maintaining the historic character of the existing building by replicating original windows and refurbishing the heavy timber roof trusses, the 3,700 sq. ft. Wellness Center, along with a large subdividable multipurpose studio provide a generous workout facility in this neighborhood facility. The building also houses a day care center and community space. Sited on a large new park next to the subway makes it well located and highly visible.
