Sloane House YMCA, Community center in Midtown Manhattan, US
The Sloane House YMCA at 356 West 34th Street contained 1600 rooms arranged in a figure-eight design with multiple floors descending into central pits.
Established in the 1930s as lodging for ethical Young Christian men, the facility later served as temporary housing for soldiers during wartime periods.
During the late 1980s, the building housed numerous artists, creating a community where painters, musicians, filmmakers, and writers collaborated on creative projects.
The facility transformed from the largest residential YMCA in the United States into market-rate apartments following its 1993 sale for 5 million dollars.
The building featured the Mood Room on the tenth floor, where students gathered for all-night radio sessions and experimental art projects.
