Life Time opening fitness and co-working space in Clarendon

• The facility’s all-in-one approach includes a fast-casual café, spa, and group fitness studios.
• A fourth floor will contain a 25,000-square-foot co-working space open 24/7 with public and private work areas, conference rooms, and a kitchen. It'll also host networking events for members.

The intrigue: The site was originally slated for Equinox, which sought to terminate its lease agreement in August 2020 after saying it suffered financial losses during the pandemic, according to court documents.

• A legal saga ensued after the landlord, Regency Centers, sued Equinox for alleged breach of contract. Regency sought a seven-figure award for damages, rent, and fees.
• The parties settled late last year, according to court filings. Neither Regency nor counsel for Equinox returned emails seeking comment.

What’s next: Life Time published a wait list page for those interested in membership.
