I've been a member of their East 91st location since they opened. Been through several renovations…read more Lots of staff have come and gone. The current crew, led by General Manager Cian Maggiore, is first class. Mr. Maggiore is the only GM I can remember who is always on the gym floors, checking equipment, and advising members; a friendly face with a quick smile. Also, I'm most pleased with the new equipment and layout. The only issue I have - besides members' obsession with their f**king cell phones - is that the new stationary bike room is tucked into a small, low-ceilinged room, which feels claustrophobic. I'm hoping this situation will be remedied. Other than that, the NYS East 91st location is a good value; neighborhood-friendly business, perfect for anyone serious about staying in shape. TF

I want everyone to know that I was kicked out of this club last year after buying a guest pass and…read moretraining with my friend, who is currently a member. This is a prime example of terrible business judgement, mediocre customer service and general customer profiling. We signed in and went downstairs to the free weights. We hadn't even been there 5 minutes, using the incline bench press when two individuals who worked for the club (a man and a lady) took me into a room as if to interrogate me. For the record, I'm NOT a personal trainer. I'm an amateur bodybuilder with an extremely MID physique. The exact conversation is as follows: Them: You are not allowed to train people at this gym Me: I was showing her how to use the Incline Press because she's literally never used it before Them: That's why we have trainers here to show people how to use machines Me: So you're saying two friends can't workout together and show each other how to improve their form Them: No Me: Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? Them: It's our policy I filed a formal complaint to management. Obviously these clowns didn't reply to me. There is a reason why this brand has been going downhill over the years. Spend your money elsewhere. I told my entire network about my experience. I have a sense they picked me out based on how I look / dress. I'm happy to discuss the details with any of you. I have memberships to three different gyms in NYC and this is by far the worst gym in the city, perhaps the country.

Marianne posted a bunch of photos so I won't do it again, but this definitely brings the Club up to at least normal standards. For my needs (cardio, strength training, lounge for work, and attentive staff), I'm updating my review to 5-stars. (My only caveat is that I don't really use the locker rooms, sauna, or pool so I can't speak to those facilities. And the roof decks are closed while the building facades are being repaired, so disregarding that now as well.)

This review reflects my experience during a facility orientation tour at Asphalt Green this morning…read morewith Fritz, a member of the customer service team. I hadn't visited the facility in many years, despite having been deeply involved in the original community mobilization efforts that ensured this property would be preserved for much-needed neighborhood fitness and cultural programming, successfully pushing back against proposals for additional luxury high-rise development. The Asphalt Green team went out of their way to accommodate me as a walk-in, encouraged by a neighbor who regularly swims at the pool and speaks highly of its state-of-the-art design. While waiting in the lobby, I also ran into a fellow runner who is a frequent gym user, a spontaneous moment that speaks volumes about how embedded Asphalt Green is in the local community. I was impressed not only by the facility itself, but by Fritz's knowledge of membership services and the institution's history, especially as I shared personal memories of my own connection to its development. The tour included the locker rooms, pool, and fitness center. The pool is truly stunning and stands out as a best-in-class facility, thoughtfully designed to incorporate accessibility for users of all abilities. Experiencing it firsthand was unexpectedly emotional, a powerful realization of visionary community leader Dr. George Murphy's hopes for the Yorkville community brought to life. The fitness center was active and welcoming, with members of all ages engaged in individual workouts, stretching, and training sessions. The equipment appeared well maintained, well used, and reflective of a vibrant, inclusive membership. As a community-based nonprofit, Asphalt Green, like many NYC nonprofits, does the best it can with the resources available. From my perspective, the facility is exceptionally well run, thoughtfully maintained, and clearly fulfilling its mission to provide a neighborhood-based, state-of-the-art fitness center that truly serves its community. Thanks to Fritz for her kindness and generosity.

If you are a serious swimmer or aspiring to be a serious swimmer, want cool, deep water that is crystal clear, there is just no other. In fact, I moved to the neighborhood to be closer after trying eery pool in the city. Also they have a 50 meter options 3-4 days a week. That is just impossible to find. Oh and they have amazing classes, a great fitness center, helpful staff. And....all of it is a not for profit. Every dime you pay goes back to teaching kids across NYC to swim. Sure -- there are a few broken water fountains from time to time, but honestly, for New York City, this is heaven. I am confused by the comments and chalk it up to the squeaky wheels.
