Hamilton Fish Park Pool : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hamilton Fish Park Pool
Hamilton Fish Park Pool was built by the New York City Parks Department using Works Progress Administration funds. It opened in June 1936. Located in the Lower East Side, the facility includes extensive facilities for filtering and purifying water, underwater lighting, and separate diving and wading pools. The largest pool has a main swimming area measuring 330 feet in length, with a width of 165 feet. The pool, situated at East Houston Street and Pitt Street, cost $1,000,000 to build. The park and pool are named after Hamilton Fish, a 19th-century politician who grew up in the neighborhood. == Park history == The pool represented the third stage in the development of Hamilton Fish Park, which was designed in 1898. The park opened in 1900, and features an impressive Beaux Arts brick and limestone gymnasium pavilion designed by Carrère and Hastings and inspired by the Petit Palais in Paris. The pavilion was designated as a New York City Landmark in 1982. A year after the park opened its grounds were damaged and it closed. In 1903 a more genuine park opened with asphalt walks, an eight lane running track, basketball, and tennis courts.
