Lease Crutcher Lewis earlier this year finished an $8 million expansion and renovation of the West Seattle YMCA, at 4515 36th Ave. S.W.
The completed YMCA totals 40,000 square feet, about one-third of which is new or substantially renovated. This includes an 8,400-square-foot addition with a heavy timber and CMU structure, street-facing windows and a daylit fitness areas. Crews also upgraded the HVAC system and built a new community room with a kitchen for cooking classes.
