Carlisle Family YMCA Construction Updates

CONSTRUCTION UPDATE

Thank you to everyone who has shared positive comments about our new Y facilities. We are still a work in progress. We recognize that members will be temporarily inconvenienced during the locker room renovation period. We appreciate your patience as we continue to balance serving members with construction challenges.

CONSTRUCTION IS UNDER WAY AND WE ARE EXCITED THAT PHASE 1 IS COMPLETE!

Construction Timeline

Construction will take approximately 22 months. Work will be completed in phases so the Y can continue to serve you.

Notification

Some changes to schedules and services will occur. This is unavoidable due to the length and scope of this project. The Y will make every effort to provide advance notice to members when facility use, or program delivery may be disrupted.

Parking

On-site parking will be limited until the new parking area is built during Phase 2. Please utilize on-street parking in the area.

Construction Schedule

November 2019 – Break ground on Phase 1
Fall 2020 – Relocate services within the building
Late 2020 – Demo former school building, start Phase 2
Late 2021 – Complete Phase 2 and other interior renovations

Phase 2 – 10-12 months of construction starting late 2020 will create a two-story addition on the north side of the building, a new parking lot and significant renovations to remaining Y facilities.

Child Care will move temporarily into first floor spaces
Administration will move temporarily into first floor space
