The new club will span three stories and be located across from the Children’s Museum, diagonally from Whole Foods Market, in space originally intended for office use.

In addition to state-of-the-art fitness amenities and group class studios, the facility will include an indoor aquatics center, a mind/body studio, rooftop pool and squash, racquetball and platform tennis courts.

Construction of the new location will begin in late 2010 and it is scheduled to open in the latter part of 2011, according to ACAC.

“ACAC’s state-of-the-art facility and comprehensive approach to fitness will add another vibrant use to the community’s already unique mix of tenants,” said Stan Manoogian, president of Markel|Eagle Partners LLC, a major investor in West Broad Village. “This architecturally striking building is another major addition to West Broad Village. Together with ACAC’s emphasis on wellness, this adds a great deal more to our unique live, work and play offering at West Broad Village.”

“What really sets ACAC apart from other gyms is our focus on creating a welcoming environment where everyone, regardless of age or fitness level, feels comfortable working out,” said Greg Wells, ACAC’s CEO.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to expand our presence in the Richmond market,” said Phil Wendel, ACAC club owner.

The West Broad Village club will be ACAC’s second location in the Richmond area.
