Crunch Fitness bringing new location to Portland, Maine.

Crunch Fitness bringing new location to Portland, Maine. The Pine Tree Shopping Center in Portland, Maine, is about to complete its pretty astounding makeover. About two years ago, the oldest shopping mall in the city was hobbling along with Big Lots and Joann Fabric as its anchor tenants. Other spaces along the mall front sat vacant from store departures. Fast forward a couple of years and the Pine Tree Shopping Center suddenly feels alive again with Jersey Mike's, O' Reilly Auto Parts and the state's only Aldi location. And soon, the Pine Tree Shopping Center will welcome a new fitness center opening their first location in Maine. Crunch Fitness prepares for grand opening in Portland, Maine. Initially announced in January, the debut of Crunch Fitness in Portland, Maine, has taken a little bit longer than expected. After construction delays amongst other hurdles, the massive gym chain has been moving quickly to open their first location in the state before the end of 2026. Signage has gone up and Crunch Fitness is offering a series of deals for customers who purchase a membership prior to the fitness center officially opening. Crunch Fitness will feature 30,000 square feet of space in Portland, Maine. Crunch Fitness will be location in the former Joann space at the Pine Tree Shopping Center in Portland, Maine.

Crunch Fitness approved in Wentzville amid resident opposition.

Crunch Fitness approved in Wentzville amid resident opposition. * by jessica marie baumgartner * sep 15, 2026 updated 1 hr ago. An amended site plan for a new two-story Crunch Fitness gym was approved in Wentzville during the Aug. 26 Board of Aldermen meeting. The original site plan failed to gain board approval in May due to concerns about placement near the Crystal Creek residential subdivision. Residents requested the proposed 24-hour facility have its overnight hours restricted and expressed concerns regarding noise and light pollution and shared stormwater responsibilities. The proposal returned before the board in August after the developer gathered feedback from residents and staff, and made adjustments to the plan. During the Aug. 26 meeting, residents returned to oppose the development, reiterating similar concerns. Katy Miles said placing a 24-hour facility so close to homeowners would set a new precedent in the city, and expressed concerns that proposed privacy screening measures would block sights but not sounds that could disturb residents at night. "I have looked up every 24-hour business in Wentzville and none of them backs up to residential homes," she said. Drew Weber, a lawyer from Hamilton Weber LLC, presented the site plan changes on behalf of Crunch Fitness. "The building is located as far to the south as possible on this property as part of the way to mitigate the impacts on residential subdivisions to the north," he said, adding that the facility's proposed parking was reduced to 223 spaces. Weber said the site's access points, located on Wentzville Parkway and Crystal Center Drive, will not increase traffic into the nearby neighborhood and that the northern buffer that backs up to the residential area was adjusted to include 20-foot landscaping with a 6-foot-tall fence on top of a 4-foot-tall landscaping buffer. Trees that will grow to at least 10 feet or higher will be planted behind the fence. Weber said Crunch Fitness representatives met with residents in June to address concerns and update the plan. Changes made were based on comments from residents, city staff and board members. ADVERTISING Alderman Linda Roth (Ward 1) questioned the average number of members who enter the facility from 11 p.m.-5 a.m. "That would all depend on the type of the area and location," developer Lance Cooper said. "It's hard to say. It's significantly lower at night." "I would think that would be part of the business plan if you're staying open 24 hours," Roth said. "That's one of the big complaints from the residents in the area." Roth motioned to prohibit parking on the north side of the property near the homes between 11 p.m.-5 a.m. The motion passed 4-2, with aldermen Chantel Summers (Ward 1) and Frank Martel (Ward 2) voting against. Alderman Michael Hays (Ward 3) moved to raise the fence buffer from 6 feet to 8 feet to help separate the residents from the business. The motion was unanimously approved. Alderman Michael Lovell (Ward 3) expressed concern about placing a 24-hour facility near residents, noting that only gas stations in the area have been constructed near residential areas. He said the building doesn't fit the area because it has no windows. "There's zero windows along the parkway," he said. "I couldn't identify one other building like that. I really don't think it's compatible." The amended site plan was approved 5-1, with Lovell voting against the project.
