EXPLORE THE GREAT HALL
LONGBOAT HALL
The original gymnasium of the West End YMCA, Longboat Hall is a genuine heritage treasure. Named for renowned distance runner and 1907 Boston Marathon winner, Tom Longboat (who trained here in the early 20th century), this versatile venue is brimming with history.
INDUSTRIAL AGE CHARM
The sandstone brick walls rise up to a patterned ceiling 20 feet above the polished concrete floor. Cast iron pillars support the wooden balcony, and the bar is backed by slate recovered from the restoration of The Great Hall’s roof. These period features and large, west-facing windows combine to lend Longboat Hall an ambience worthy of any event.
OFF THE BEATEN (RUNNING) TRACK
Longboat Hall is a self-contained venue of over 5000 sq. ft. with a street level main entrance on Dovercourt Road, and an oval original running track balcony that looks out over the main floor and bar. The layout lends itself to all types of events, with a customizable sound & light system and modular stage that can be positioned anywhere in the room or taken out for full floor access.
