YMCA remains committed to downtown

ymcacentralIt’s too bad that it didn’t work out for the YMCA’s Central Branch to relocate along the Arkansas River. The new facility would have been a nice addition to the river corridor. But it is great that the YMCA remains committed to downtown and plans to rebuild at its current location at 402 N. Market, where the YMCA anticipates serving nearly 17,000 people annually and enhancing its youth outreach programs.

    Looked like the location north of the Broadview Hotel had a lot of pluses for the YMCA and the people of Wichita. What was the controversy?
