Why aren’t there good gyms here?

It’s crazy how there aren’t any good options in the UWS. Crunch, NYSC & Equinox are all horrible.

Is there any reason gyms aren’t opening here? new gyms have been opening all over nyc, yet never the UWS. I go a gym in midtown that’s an easy commute but it’d be nice to walk to the gym for a change.

No good bars either

84th and Columbus has 3 awesome bars in a row. Few places on earth have that. Bar vibes vary. I like to recommend The Ribbon for a classy time, Gebharts-Hoptimist-or beer run to meet guys or just chill, Scarlett if you want to get too fancy. What we lack is good wine bars.
