SECAUCUS, N.J. — Irvine, Calif.-based LA Fitness will open a 45,000-square-foot sports club at 450 Harmon Meadow Blvd. in Secaucus, within the Harmon Meadow mixed-use development. The property is located adjacent to a 1,000-space parking garage. The sports club will include full-length basketball courts, a three-lane lap pool, a whirlpool, locker rooms, and separate studios for aerobics, group exercise and stationary bikes. These amenities will surround an array of cardio and circuit training equipment, as well as free weight areas. The new LA Fitness will also offer classes and childcare services. The existing building on the property will be extensively renovated to make way for the new sports club, including the addition of a 3,500-square-foot mezzanine for cardio equipment. The grand opening is scheduled for late fall. It will mark New Jersey’s eighth LA Fitness and the first to be located in the Meadowlands area. Harmon Meadow is owned by locally based Hartz Mountain Industries. Constructed in 1984, the project has seen recent construction, including the renovation of the Plaza Courtyard, which was completed in August 2008, and the redevelopment of Mill Creek Mall.
