GREAT Gym/Fitness Center in Queens (Astoria, Woodside area)-repost from nwr

I know there are a few of you on here that have recently moved/are moving to Queens...

Incase you havent heard of the BQE Racquetball & Fitness Center..

I used to go to this gym years ago, and I thought of mentioning it here, since the prices are probably MUCH better than other gyms in comparison.. They have everything from a cafe/bar to a swimming pool, and they are open 24hrs.
A friend just looked to sign up, and she got a membership for $215 for 2 years, and its a 5day thing (no mon or tues) I remember they had 'night owl' and 'early bird' type memberships also. This price could be REALLy low because she was a member in the past, so it may have been a renewal price.
Its located maybe 2-3miles from Steinway St/Astoria Blvd.

I just found an old article on the gym, if anyone wanted more info.. its worth it for the price.

(if the prices really are this low!)

BQE Gym
