Winter Park is getting an 80,000-square-foot facility thats more than just a fitness center, officials announced on Wednesday.

The Center for Health & Wellbeing, expected to open late next year, will provide wellness, fitness and medical services. Its the result of a partnership between Florida Hospital and Winter Park Health Foundation. The fitness center is operated by Central Florida YMCA.

Every part of the facility, from top to bottom, is designed to help people become and stay healthy, said Patty Maddox, president and CEO of the Winter Park Health Foundation, in a news release.

Maddox said that with more than 30,000 seniors living within five miles of the new center, the facility will give them a one-stop shop.

The new building replaces the 27-year-old Crosby YMCA on Mizell Avenue near Winter Park Memorial Hospital, which was torn down in late 2015.

Back then, officials estimated that the project would be finished by end of 2017, but the openingdate is pushed back a year. The previously-estimated cost of the project was$35 million to $40 million, paid for mostly by the foundation.

The Center for Health & Wellbeing will feature educational classes, an indoor farmers market and programs like cooking demonstrations; two pools, one of which is designed for warm-water therapy and aquatic exercises; and a 15,000-square-foot clinical space, staffed by Florida Hospital specialists and programs like Florida Hospital Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation.

The City of Winter Park has dedicated a new road the Crosby Way whichleads into the facility.
