Jamie Wolff: Lift in Time

Unlike the crowded chain gyms nearby, Jamie Wolff: Lift in Time operates as a personal training service in a quiet pocket of the Upper East Side. The suite number hints at its unobtrusive presence among the older buildings and newer developments in the area.

You’ll find it at Suite A6C, 1810 3rd Ave Suite B1, New York, NY 10029—tucked where the sidewalks narrow and the pedestrian traffic thins. Personal trainers here work with clients on individualized fitness plans, a contrast to the generic group classes down the block.

They answer calls at (607) 431-8463, a number that stands out among local listings for its upstate area code. It’s an unusual touch for a business serving Manhattan residents.

Directions to the entrance can be found via https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c258a8749440f7:0x7188466f618d0e5. The block itself has a certain stillness before the evening rush.
