It looks like the ginormous Brooklyn Athletic Club is sticking to its projected opening month of July, and now New York magazine has a detailed look at its layout of the 17,000-square foot, four story facility.

Members can expect to find two pools in the basement alongside Woodway treadmills, a Strongman training area, free weights and cardio machines with a view of the tennis courts, and a patio suitable for both outdoor yoga and bachelorette parties.

There's also the yoga studio and cycling room that are standard in full-service gyms, plus massage areas and not one, but two infrared saunas for detoxing. And last but not least, there's the babysitting room. A little "me time" away from the kids? The ultimate relaxation.
