Good-bye Swimming Pool



On Friday, August 3, I went by the Highland Park pool, armed with a camera to take pictures of the Triangle Garden, and was pleasantly surprised to see bulldozers filling in holes where the pool had been. Within a few days, the pool buildings were gone, too. It is sad to see the end of the era when the city made deep water pools available to the public, but good to see our neighborhood rid of what had become a dangerous eyesore.

  2. I haven't posted the photos I've taken of the finished demolition. Almost all of the tree waste has been cleaned up now, and soon grass will be growing. The parking lot that was by the pool is gone, too, and people wanting to visit the creek are parking on the grass.
