Rack bank carrying the building's own plaque at the Linden Lane amenity gym, Hell's Kitchen

Amenity · Linden Lane, Hell's Kitchen, New York

A building gym that had to look like a private one.

The brief

This is the first non-residential room we have been able to show. It is the amenity gym for a building in Hell's Kitchen, specified and built to commercial standard, and it had to hold up under shared use by an entire building rather than one household.

The column in the middle of the floor decided the layout. Racks and mirrors down one side, cable and cardio down the other, and the circulation runs around the column rather than fighting it.

The rack carries the building's own plaque. That is not a Rogue catalogue item.
