First I've heard of it. We've never had a real gym on "this side of the river". So I'm excited.

I tried to look this up and couldn't find an opening date. Looks pretty sweet though.

I know someone who did some probing but apparently they havent even applied for the permits from the town yet to start building. So I have no idea what the deal is.

I was at the gym nj and saw the flyer. I asked and all the guy behind the counter said is they possibly have a location and it will open 2015. I'm hoping they get it figured out soon

I spoke with one of the owners yesterday at Gravity Vault, Chatham.
Yesterday being 7/13/2015.
He confirmed that a Poughkeepsie Gravity Vault will open in late 2015 or the first quarter of 2016. They have secured a building for the gym. They are now going thru the permit and wall building process

Hey guys, thank you all so much for the discussion and excitement about the new Gravity Vault Poughkeepsie location. We really appreciate your support and can't wait to bring a state of the art gym to the area. Construction work began this past week and soon we'll be updating our website and social media pages with updates and photos as work progresses. We are pushing hard to be open as soon as possible. The information you received regarding opening late 2015 ~ early 2016 is accurate. As you can imagine building a world class climbing gym takes some time but we think you will be very happy with the results. The gym will be located along the Route 9 corridor providing easy access from both sides of the river. Please keep an eye on the website at gravityvault.com or you can reach us at Poughkeepsie@gravityvault.com

I have no reliable info, but I suspect it's just north of Red Lobster.

Hey there!

I'm looking for lead partners, go usually around 4/5p on the weekdays but have flexible schedule. HMU if anyone wants to meet up to trade belays.

If you haven't been yet the routes there are great, especially the steep lead walls/roofs make for some really ridiculous acrobats, feels almost like climbing in the Gunks!
