Movement LIC

"This is the most centrally located, multi discipline (lead, boulder, and TR), high quality (good setting, large lead cave, tall walls, interesting angles, and a thoughtful layout) climbing gym in NYC. Now under new ownership, previously The Cliffs, this gym still breeds great climbers and an inclusive social environment. I’d say it has a better lead cave than Gowanus and typically hosts more experienced climbers as it’s an older gym, but doesn’t have a sauna or as extensive bouldering as Gowanus."

Not only that the staff don’t care about it which is really annoying. Also the mini fridge is never fully stocked up. Also ever since the gym became “movement” the staff got more rude, the food and drink stock went down, the simple first aid stuff disappeared, and more kids would run around unsupervised, Please fix this"

It’s literally jaw-dropping. I’ve never seen higher indoor climbing walls and there’s an incredible number of climbs. There are also about 8 "
