READY: Your YMCA will be better
prepared for a major earthquake.
Your Downtown Berkeley YMCA is planning
a major seismic upgrade beginning this
spring to ensure that the 17,000 people
who use the Y will be even safer in the
event of a major earthquake.
SET: Your favorite YMCA programs will
continue during construction. All your
programs will continue during the seismic
retrofit because the Y will be creating new
“swing space” for programs that will need
to be moved during construction.
GROW: Your YMCA will expand as a
result of the seismic retrofit. When
the seismic work is completed, the
extra space created during the retrofit
will allow the YMCA to expand and add
programs that many of you have been
asking for. The end result will be a safer,
bigger, and better YMCA for our community.
