West Side YMCA Temporarily Closed Due to an ‘Emergency’

The West Side YMCA on the Upper West Side is fully closed on Monday and Tuesday due to “an emergency,” according to a message on its website.

The Y, on West 63rd Street, between Broadway and Central Park West, informed readers that “Members have citywide access [to other YMCA facilities] at this time. The Residence Program is open & Program Participants will receive a make-up class or credit.”

While the message on the website doesn’t specify the nature of the emergency, an email from YMCA leadership, shared with West Side Rag, indicates it is related to an “emergency steam leak.”

The West Side YMCA did not immediately respond to the Rag’s request for more information.

Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration.
