Life Time is opening a club on Twenty Ninth Street in central Boulder, CO, early next year. After renovation, the 40,000-square-foot space will become Life Time Boulder, replacing the former Colorado Athletic Club.
“We are so pleased to welcome Life Time to Twenty Ninth Street, our one-of-a-kind outdoor property in the heart of Boulder,” said Bob Beffa, SVP of Real Estate at Macerich. “With three high-performing Life Time locations already operating at other top regional town centers in our portfolio, we can say with confidence that they are a terrific operator, and their amenity-rich athletic facilities are top-notch. We are especially appreciative that, with Life Time, Twenty Ninth Street will continue to offer an outstanding fitness experience geared to this incredibly active community.”
The site will be the company’s first in Boulder and will be a cornerstone of the open-air, mixed-use lifestyle center that includes shopping, dining and entertainment, plus offices adjacent to Google’s Boulder campus and near the University of Colorado Boulder.
“Our full transformation at Twenty Ninth Street will bring new energy and excitement as the premier luxury athletic and social club in Boulder,” said Parham Javaheri, president of club operations and chief property development officer at Life Time. “Our ongoing collaboration with Macerich has proven to be successful for both entities as we continue to bring the Life Time brand to highly desirable locations as part of our asset-light strategy.”
Other Macerich properties where Life Time operates include Biltmore Fashion Park in Phoenix, AZ; Scottsdale Fashion Square in Scottsdale, AZ; and its most recent opening at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek, CA.
Life Time operates six clubs in Colorado, with its newest Life Time Denver West in Wheat Ridge, scheduled to open in the first half of 2024.
