Columbia Housing Upgrades Nine Residence Hall Fitness Centers

March 18, 2026

More than 30 pieces of equipment were replaced to make these spaces more functional for residential students.  

Since 2024, Columbia Housing has upgraded and replaced equipment across nine of its 11 residence hall fitness centers. Updates were made to the following buildings: 

  • 47 Claremont Avenue
  • Broadway Hall
  • Carlton Arms
  • Carman Hall
  • East Campus
  • Harmony Hall
  • McBain Hall*
  • River Hall 

In total, these refreshed spaces now feature 17 treadmills, 10 bikes, and 7 strength machines. New equipment was selected and installed based on the layout of each fitness center to maximize the space.   

*These fitness centers also received lighting refreshes.  

The final phase of the project, scheduled over the next year, will upgrade the fitness center in Ruggles.
