St. Michaels YMCA – New Construction

Gipe Associates, Inc. provided mechanical, (including heating, ventilating, and air conditioning), electrical, (including power interior lighting, site lighting, and fire alarm), plumbing, and fire protection system design and contract administration for the new YMCA located in St. Michaels, Maryland.  The new facility consists of 24,000 square feet that houses a natatorium, gymnasium, locker room area, wellness center, multiple exercise rooms, a kitchen, a teen center, and child watch play area.  Specialized dehumidification and ventilation systems were designed to handle the proper airflow requirements associated with gymnasiums and natatoriums.   Once the facility was constructed, Gipe Associates was then hired to complete the commissioning of the HVAC systems to ensure they had been installed and were functioning as designed.  The St. Michaels YMCA was also built on the St. Michaels Middle/High School campus, creating unique challenges involving the relocation of tennis courts, stadium scoreboard conduit, and phasing needs in order to avoid disruption of school activities.  24,000sf / $7.2M
