Chelsea Piers Connecticut plans to begin construction on a $12 million project this fall that would open a new 65,000-square-foot health and fitness center and clubhouse adjacent to its 400,000-square-foot sports complex.
Chelsea Piers Athletic Club at 1 Blachley Road in Stamford will be a members-only facility with 25,000 square feet of strength and cardio equipment, a mind and body center, and a space for triathlon and competitive cycling training. The center will offer more than 75 weekly fitness classes and programs. A custom Queenax Bridge studio will be offered for suspension, boxing and functional training.
The expansion is anticipated to create 80 more jobs, according to a Chelsea Piers press release.
Members will have access to the Olympic-size pool, hardwood basketball courts, one-fifth mile indoor track, indoor turf fields and tennis and squash courts. Membership also includes babysitting services, two luxury lounges and cafes, steam rooms, saunas and massage therapy rooms.
“We could not be more excited about the construction of CP-AC Fitness and the expansion of our already robust membership program,” Mollie Marcoux, executive director of Chelsea Piers Connecticut, said in a written statement. “CP-AC Fitness is inspired by our highly-rated sports club in New York and the cutting-edge fitness programming will be unmatched in Fairfield County.”
