StreetLevel: Gowanus Will Pump You Up!
Come early September, the raw space pictured above will be transformed into a gym and training center called Triomph Fitness, Health, & Wellness. The gym, in a former warehouse at 540 President Street, will have cardio equipment, a studio space for classes, a juice bar, a strength training area and massage rooms. Triomph is being established by three people who used to work at the Cobble Hill Fitness Collective and, as is the case with Fitness Collective, the emphasis here will be on one-on-one training. (In other words, the facility won't be open for a la carte use of machines.) Training packages are being discounted in advance of the September 9th grand opening.

That space is perfect? It has support beams and is about 13,000 sf smaller than a typical roller skating rink.

"That space is perfect? It has support beams"

I didn't have you down as a roller skater Rob. Didn't you say you have a poor sense of balance?
The roller disco folks in Central Park are fun to watch - you should check them out sometime.

I go to the gym 5 days a week.
I go roller skating once every 5 years.

and you have 146 long blonde wigs in your collection. so by your logic this place should be turned into a white lady wig shoppe.

Not a "Triomph" for spelling.

This place is ine stolen idea from another. If they are with the Fitness Collective why not say that? They are not the Collective, but a weird bunch of wannabees. I'll never go there.

what a terrible idea. We already have fitness together, the FItness Collecive, the parl slope fitness collective, a pilates garage, bootcamp, and now another place in the middle of a sewer. Great! Does any one else have a new idea?
