Spa Castle closed in New York due to safety concerns
Spa Castle Premier 57, a 39,000sq ft (3,623sq m) bathhouse style spa in Manhattan, has been temporarily closed by the city’s health department. Although it was in the process of apply- ing for a permit, it had not been granted and the facility also lacked an approved safety plan – both of these are required for all bathing establishments in New York. The health department was investigat- ing the Manhattan facility after the death of a man at Spa Castle’s sister property in Queens in December. Hock Ma, an 84-year- -old man, was found floating in a hot tub after suffering a heart attack. The Queens spa had had 28 critical violations in the previous two years but had corrected these by its most recent inspection in September.
