Completed in 2015, the renovations to the Lobby and Lower level of the former Whiting Community Center entailed the conversion and restoration of a 1920’s community center into a state of the art work out facility operated by the YMCA. Originally built with bowling lanes and banquet facilities on the lower level, the facility had endured a series of renovation projects and years of neglect to a point where the locker rooms were closed for a few years in the 1980s. From a technical point of view, the challenge of the project included removing the bowling lanes, lowering a portion.
