London Terrace Towers Pool and Health Club
Membership Rules and Regulations
The London Terrace Pool and Health Club (the “Facility") contains what has been called “the best pool in New York” – a half Olympic sized indoor swimming pool. It also features Men and Women’s locker rooms with showers, steam rooms and saunas as well as a complete Health Club. The Health Club offers a full Cybex and Life Fitness circuit, free weights, treadmills, crosstrainers, stairmasters and other aerobic equipment.
The following guidelines, rules and regulations have been developed for the pleasure and safety of residents when using any part of the Facility. Revisions to these rules and regulations may be made from time to time. Significant changes will be posted.
Membership
The Facility is a private club for use by the residents of London Terrace Towers and London Terrace Gardens only. Free use of the pool and locker room areas is a privilege extended to all residents. Proof of residency (a valid, color-coded resident photo identification card, issued by the London Terrace Towers Management Office) is required.
Separate membership to the Health Club is available by registration, presentation of an ID and payment of the applicable membership fee. Shareholders of the Towers may register for or renew their memberships in the Health Club. Renewals for those who sublet in the Towers or who are in rental apartments must go to the Management Office at 405 West 23 Street, 2E.
Membership is not transferable or refundable. ID’s are not transferable. With thirty days written notice to the Health Club Manager, membership may be frozen for medical reasons when accompanied by a verifiable letter from a physician. Personal reasons may also be considered upon the delivery of a letter stating such reasons from the member to the Health Club Manager.
Access to the Facility
Each resident must sign in and out when using any part of the Facility. Residents’ IDs must be deposited with either the lifeguard or the trainer on duty.
