Fitness Center Closed Due to Unpaid Rent

According to the property management company that owns the building formerly occupied by the Montville Family Fitness Center on Changebridge Road, the gym has been closed due to a failure to pay rent.

"The situation was handled by the courts," building owner Michael Lahue said. "They did have money. We've had many, many calls, a whole list of people who were members, so we know they had money, they just weren't giving it to us."

According to Lahue, building management is looking into bringing a new fitness center to the space in the coming weeks.

"We are in the process of interviewing a variety of fitness centers, and we expect we will choose one of them soon," he said.

The fitness center is currently closed, with multiple signs and postings on the door, announcing new facilities coming and people to contact with more information.

According to the fitness center's website, the location had been in service for more than 10 years, offering daily and nightly exercise classes.

Representatives from the fitness center could not be reached for comment.
