McCarren Pool (Brooklyn, NY)

As I pointed out a little while ago, the long decommissioned McCarren Park Pool will officially re-open to the public as a swimmin’ hole tomorrow. If you’re in the mood to rub shoulders with hizzoner, you may still be able to get into the official ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday morning.

Please join Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and
Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe
for the reopening of McCarren Pool and Play Center

Thursday, June 28, 2012 at 9:30 a.m.

After being closed for 28 years, McCarren Pool and Play Center is Mayor Bloomberg’s first PlaNYC regional park project to be completed. The renovated WPA-era facility consists of an outdoor pool with state-of-the-art utilities and an indoor Play Center including gym, cardio and fitness rooms that will operate year-round.

Enter on Lorimer Street between Driggs Avenue and Bayard Street

Refreshments and music to follow the ceremony.
Limited capacity: RSVP to rsvp@parks.nyc.gov.
