Surviving Railroad YMCA buildings?

YMCA historically was in the SRO (single room occupancy) business for men. People forget about that today as it is now the local pool and gym. When I was a kid they still had a few men living in my local Y but wouldn’t continue with that when the last moved away. The places continuing in this business - such as the one in Bellevue - as far as I know aren’t part of Y any more. Plus in many towns (such as where I live now) the codes don’t allow the SROs to operate any more.
