HOUSTON, Oct. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Life Time, the premiere healthy lifestyle brand, is continuing its Houston expansion with the opening of Life Time Greenway following a massive renovation and expansion of the former Houston City Club. The new athletic resort, the tenth in the market and one of several Houston-area projects underway, is open to its Founding Members Oct. 25-27 and opens to all members on Mon., Oct. 28 at 4:00 a.m.
Life Time purchased the Greenway Plaza space in 2017 and began work in 2018 to create the ultimate athletic resort experience for members. The entire 150,000-square foot club was reimagined including the addition of a rooftop pool deck—a first in the market—covering 54,000-square feet on top of the existing parking structure. A Life Time Work lounge occupies 5,500-square-feet with touches from the company's Life Time Work coworking model, while LT Recovery, a dedicated space for athletic performance and recovery featuring metabolic assessments, nutrition coaching, sports and athletic treatments, and chiropractic and physical therapy care, takes 3,000-square feet.
"Life Time is very excited to bring something completely new to Houston here in Greenway Plaza," said Jeff Zwiefel, Life Time chief operating officer. "Everything we create inside and outside of our building is designed with our members in mind and providing them all they need to live a healthy happy life whether they're exercising, working, relaxing or spending time with family or friends. This is truly a special place."
