From the Tampa Bay Business Journal: "The future home of Gold's Gym Gas Worx is still a barren warehouse, but Tampa real estate broker Kimberlee Curtis has already mapped out every detail, from where the squat racks will be to a loading dock with skyline views that will be transformed into a functional training turf." "Curtis and her business partners have leased a 25,000-square-foot warehouse at 802 N. 12th St., just south of Four Green Fields. The Gold's warehouse is owned by Ybor City developer Darryl Shaw and was included in the 50-plus acre rezoning approval to make way for the Gas Worx district." "In April, Curtis traveled to Berlin to visit RSG Group's headquarters. RSG bought Gold's out of bankruptcy in 2020 when the chain voluntarily filed for Chapter 11 after Covid-19 shutdowns upended its business model. She's bought $1 million in gym equipment and will invest another $1 million on construction; she said she's waiting on permits to begin." "If their projections hold true, Gas Worx will open by year's end — well ahead of the district's first phase of residential units, which are under construction on the former Tampa Park apartments site. Gas Worx will bring thousands of new residents and office workers to a part of downtown Tampa that's currently a no man's land between the Channel district and Ybor City. But even before Gas Worx opens, Curtis sees huge potential for Gold's — she lives in the Channel district and works out at Crunch Fitness in Grand Central at Kennedy, which she says has 10,000 members." "She is also chairwoman of the Channel district Community Redevelopment Area's Community Advisory Committee. (CRAs have a state designation that allows them to use locally generated money to fund projects within the CRA.)" Follow Gold's Gym Gas Wrote Tampa for more info!
