Project Description
Quandel Construction Group was the general contractor on the 88,000 sf renovation program for the historic Wilkes-Barre Y.M.C.A. that included creating 21 modern student apartments, restructuring existing facilities and a long overdue cleaning of the building’s exterior. The student housing was created for use by local colleges.
The apartments, with a total capacity of 59 students, occupy the fourth, fifth and sixth floors of the six-story historic building. Part of the project also included renovating the front entrance and creating a dedicated entrance for residences leading into a high ceiling lobby, equipped with seating, a mail area and an adjacent leasing office.
A new fitness center now occupies the space of the former swimming pool. Locker rooms were modernized and the women’s fitness center in the basement was renovated. A new elevator and roof were also part of the project.
