Life Time opened phase one of its 54,000-square-foot destination at the redeveloped Penn 1 building, as part of the Penn District, located adjacent to Madison Square Garden in New York City.

The company said in a release that Life Time at Penn 1 “brings an entirely new, luxurious athletic club experience for office workers, commuters and neighborhood residents on the second and third floors of the tower in Vornado Realty Trust’s completely reimagined space.”

“It’s been a thrill to see the continued redevelopment of the Penn District with Vornado Realty Trust, and for Life Time to open phase one of our project with newly designed spaces and experiences for our exclusive, high-impact classes and offerings,” said Parham Javaheri, Life Time’s chief property development officer.

“Even more exciting is what’s ahead when we open the city’s most-premiere indoor pickleball club and additional spaces for our signature small group training programs in early 2024. It will truly add to Life Time’s growing footprint in New York City.”

Phase two will reportedly include seven ground-level pickleball courts, lounge, seating and a bar areas, and dedicated spaces for Alpha, GTX, and UltraFit when it opens in early 2024.
