Details last checked
Lore Bathing Club is a communal bathhouse in New York whose dry sauna is advertised as reaching up to 190° alongside a large 16ft by 7ft cold pool, sold in 75-minute sessions with a $250 monthly membership that is currently waitlisted. Its single-session price is quoted three different ways across its own pages and its opening hours four different ways, so neither is listed here.
How it compares in New York
It does not publish a plunge temperature (8 of the 34 New York studios we track do) — worth asking when you book. Communal access puts it with 23 of the 34 studios we track here; the rest run a different model.

The club states its dry sauna "reaches heats of up to 190°" — a maximum rather than an operating setpoint, so no temperature field is recorded. No single-session rate is recorded either: the club prices one visit three different ways across its own pages ($65 peak, $35 off-peak, and $55 in its FAQ), all under an "Early access pricing" label. Membership is $250/month, currently sold out with a waitlist, also at early-access pricing. A three-session pack is $149 and credits expire 45 days after purchase. Guests are $35. No day pass is sold.
