AGERSTOWN, MD — The historic YMCA building in downtown
Hagerstown is going to auction in J a n u a r y of the New Year! The 100,000± s/f Neo-Geor - gian style structure
Matt Hurley
was erected in 1920 by the 11 Y11 Organization as a YMCA (Young Men’s Christian Asso - ciation) center to provide a safe space for young men to escape the dangers of the streets. The building was designed by local architect Fred J. Mack (1878-1957) who had formed a partnership with Charles E. Kountz in Hagerstown in 1907. The firm of Mack and Kountz was in existence for only a few years, but Mack became known for his multiple works in Hag - erstown as well as the former Stohr College in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, and buildings at Mercersburg Academy, Mer- cersburg, Pennsylvania. At the age of 24, he was responsible for the design of the Chalfonte Hotel in Atlantic City. Mack’s architectural design of the Hag - erstown YMCA can still be seen today with the classical styles of the 19th century. According to the Maryland Historical Trust, he donated all of his time and efforts as well as the project designs to the city. The former YMCA, located at 149 N. Potomac St. in down- town Hagerstown, is just two blocks north of Public Square and in close proximity to the newly constructed Meritus Park, Barbara Ingram School for the Arts, The Maryland Theatre, Western MD Regional Library, The Potomac Towers, Hagerstown Fairgrounds, Uni - versity Plaza, and more! The City of Hagerstown is updating its Downtown Plan for future growth with many projects already underway. Now after many years of being vacant, the building is going up for auction! Hurley Real Estate & Auctions of Greencastle, PA has been asked to undertake this large scale event. Property showings for the building will be held on Saturdays January 8th and 15th from 12-2PM. Sealed bids for the property will be accepted through January 22, 2025 no later than 1PM. MAREJ
