A busy month at the YMCA!
Check out our timelapse for the month of June at the YMCA! Last month saw the continuation of the concrete frame installation. The timelapse shows the close coordination required between erecting the falsework, laying the decking, installing reinforcement and pumping the concrete slabs in order to achieve optimum timescales.
Neilcott were appointed following single stage competitive tender to undertake Phase 1 of the YMCA redevelopment. The existing YMCA building required urgent modernisation and this scheme will provide 121 hostel rooms with en-suite bathrooms and cooking facilities, to help give residents a better quality of life and support them back into independent living. In addition, YMCA residents and the Wimbledon community will benefit from new and improved, affordable facilities, including a gym, bigger studio space for fitness classes, a children’s area and brand-new YMCA café.
Following completion next year, YMCA residents will move into the new facility enabling the existing building to be demolished ready for future redevelopment.
