Exploring abandoned DETROIT YMCA that closed in 1980
It was constructed in a neo-Romanesque design by Albert Kahn, and the cornerstone was laid by one of the seven brothers who founded Fisher Body, Edward Fisher. As the decades wore on, this YMCA gained a reputation for its interior décor. The standouts that impressed the most were the intricately-tiled swimming pool, the circular track above the gym, grand ballroom, and huge library. By the 1970s, enrollment was down.....down far enough where the facility was forced to shut down in the 1980s. Once closed, it was re-invented as a mental illness center. The center lasted approximately thirty years, and then that, too, closed in 2018. From then on, it sat there abandoned. The old YMCA is for sale, but nothing is happening yet. As of 2023, the YMCA still sits abandoned. Hopefully it can be saved instead of being unceremoniously torn down, like so many historic buildings...
