New Fitness Center Coming to Parkville

Even as closed their doors for good, Regency Centers, the real estate company that manages Parkville Shopping Center, had a new tenant lined up.

A gym called Fitness 19 is set to open in the space sometime in May and signs have already been posted in the windows of the location. A membership office for the new gym—one of very few in the Parkville area—currently occupies the space next to in the shopping center.

According to the company website, "Fitness 19 was founded in 2003 by two fitness industry veterans who believed that the traditional health club model wasn’t meeting the needs of the vast majority people."

The company says it offers "an extremely affordable, family-friendly facility that offers state-of-the-art cardio, strength and free weight equipment."

Each Fitness 19 location also has a kids room where parents can drop children off while they work out.

Membership to the gym currently costs only $12 according to a sign posted in the membership office window.
