Wareham YMCA Wellness Center
Gleason Family YMCA Wellness Center Addition
Wareham, MA
This addition to the Wareham YMCA, completed in 2004, was undertaken 12 months after the opening of the facility as one of a number of planned expansion phases. In response to high demand on the original Wellness Center, this new space increased the area of the original venue by fifty percent and is now home to the free weight room allowing for new cardiovascular and resistance training equipment in the original space.

Gleason Family YMCA Pool and Bathhouse
Wareham, MA
The original building designed by Civitects was conceived to accommodate future additions. This project consisted of construction of a bathhouse with changing and toilet facilities, a staff building with concession, firstaid and toilet facilities, and a swimming pool with 3 lanes and a zero-depth entry water feature zone.
Wareham YMCA Original Building
Gleason Family YMCA
Wareham, MA
Supported by an overwhelmingly enthusiastic community in need of space for youth and family activities, this facility revolved around the concept that growth would happen quickly and space requirements would rapidly expand. Planned to be a full service YMCA, the programming included a swimming pool, gymnasium, wellness, center, climbing wall, aerobics rooms, computer room, meeting room, youth room, child care facilities, administration, skate park and walking trails.
Natural light filters into the interior of the building through a spinal corridor along which program spaces are organized for easy user navigation. Judicious placement of exterior and interior windows provides a clear sense of openness fostering social connection among visitors.
