More:
Notes: The pool is much longer than it is wide, perhaps as long as 75 meters according to one swimmer's estimate, but lap swimming is always width-wise (without lane lines), so we've shown the width as the main dimension of the pool.  
The facility, built in 1936, was closed for almost eight months for a major refurbishment and reopened in March, 2003. The Park District's brochure is available in Adobe Acrobat format HERE.

Reviews: Post-renovation, the pool is MUCH better; it's still only 20 yards long, but there are numerous lanes.
If you disagree with this review, click HERE. If we can fit your comments into this section, we will - "different strokes for different folks" is particularly applicable to the swimming community.
