More promises from Crunch... Paul wrote us:

Quote:
"Not sure if I missed this on DH somewhere but Park Slope Sports Club AKA Crunch is expanding up Flatbush Avenue towards the park. I hear they have bought the store next door and the pattie shop next to it. Apparently one of the improvements will be a boxing ring. The pattie store has a sign in the window saying they are moving up Flatbush opposite Blockbuster."


There is reason to be wary of their promises... The last time we reported something like this--exercise pools that they were going to install in the old Flatbush Pavilion theater downstairs--that the end result was free publicity (even the Daily News picked up on our blog post) and they never made good on their promise. Something about not enough clearance to dig out the pools after all.

Show of hands: who signed up for Park Slope Sports Club because hey, they are going to have a pool eventually?

i used to belong to a crunch in chicago.

(it did have a pool, which was very nice)

i took kickboxing classes in the boxing ring. you weren't allowed in the ring except as part of a class or with a personal trainer. but the ring was a very fun toy.

then the floor of the ring got out of balance, and no one could use it anymore. and they never got it fixed.

the end.

My beloved ex-porn theatre is being converted into a swimming pool?
