Delgado's Gym is a private gym located in Manhattan near the Manhattan City Bank branch used by the founders of Ghostbusters.

History

After Walter Peck issued mandatory physical requirements, the city paid for gym memberships for the Ghostbusters. Peter Venkman and Egon Spengler seemed to frequent Delgado's Gym. Once Peter and Egon left the gym, Egon met a rather exuberant fan and thought he saw someone he knew. About a week later, Egon returned to Delgado's when his research came to a standstill. He ran six miles then left. On the way out, he encountered Janine Melnitz and her boyfriend Roger Baugh. Egon abruptly walked off to take some readings at a street corner near Delgado's.
