The Downtown Huntsville YMCA has announced it will vacate its current location by August 31, following notice from Huntsville Utilities regarding the organization’s need to reclaim the space for its growing operations.
Why the move is happening
YMCA leaders shared that Huntsville Utilities’ rapid growth and space needs have made it necessary for the Y to leave its longstanding downtown facility. The official end date for their use of the space is now confirmed as August 31.
A new location is in the works
Despite the change, the YMCA is actively searching for a new downtown location that will continue to serve members as well—if not better—than before. Leadership expressed confidence that a new space will be finalized and ready by the time the current facility closes.
Keeping members informed
Interim CEO Jeff Collen emphasized the YMCA’s commitment to transparency, assuring members that updates will be provided regularly. He also encouraged members to speak with membership services staff for accurate information and thanked the community for its ongoing support in building a stronger Huntsville through health, youth programs, and social initiatives.
