Brookfield Residential YMCA's pools and surf simulator opens Friday
The largest YMCA in the world will open its aquatic pools to Calgarians and visitors alike this Friday.
The Brookfield Residential YMCA, a 330,000-sq-ft behemoth in Calgary’s Seton neighbourhood, opened its doors on January 14, allowing visitors access to amenities including fitness centres, ice rinks, and a branch of the Calgary Library.

What it didn’t open back in January, however, were the multiple pools, water slides, and hot tubs making up the Y’s aquatic section, as construction delays stalled completion of that section of the building.
