TAMPA, Fla. — Municipal Gym, the fitness brand Mark Wahlberg started with the team behind EōS Fitness, has chosen downtown Tampa, Fla., for its first club in Florida.
The club will fill a 30,000-square-foot space inside DoMo at Cass Square, the planned tower at 1110 E. Cass St. that carries a price tag of $200 million. The gym will take up about three-quarters of the retail space in the 27-story building, which Miami-based LD&D is developing. Tampa would be the brand’s second location in the country, after its flagship in Las Vegas.
The announcement adds a national fitness name to the growing residential stretch east of downtown, where the DoMo project is meant to mix housing, a hotel, shops and parking on one site. Company co-chair and chief executive Manzo Hodge called the move into Tampa a milestone for the brand.
Plans call for strength equipment, a turf area of 15,000 square feet, outdoor training space, a golf simulator, recovery pools, cryotherapy, saunas and a cafe.
The tower is slated to hold 360 apartments, 30 of them workforce housing, along with a 178-room hotel and parking for 574 vehicles. No opening date or membership pricing has been announced.
Beyond the main workout floor, the club is set to include a circuit training room modeled on the early-morning routine Wahlberg is known for. Recovery services listed for the site include red light therapy, hydrotherapy massage and steam rooms, and a retail corner is planned alongside the cafe. Residents of the tower will also get their own amenities, such as a library, a game room, shared co-working space and a pool deck.
