Every now and then I have been asked about dates for future USMS Nationals. Here are the dates for the meets currently on the calendar:
May 1-4, 2014 Spring Nationals: Santa Clara, CA
August 13-17, 2014 Summer Nationals: University of Maryland College Park
April 23-26, 2015 Spring Nationals: San Antonio, TX
August 6-9, 2015 Summer Nationals: SPIRE Institute, Ohio
Hosts for 2016 will be solicited and awarded next year.

so the city has been picked but the venue is still up in the air ? it looks like northside is an outdoor pool. i could not find the "national aquatics center and natatorium"
The outdoor 50m pool can accommodate 18-20 lanes for competition (two courses) while an additional outdoor pool (diving well) could accommodate 10 lanes (13-17 feet depth). The indoor pool can be setup to have two 8 lane course plus 6 warm up lanes. Finally, there is another outdoor teach pool with 3 25y lanes. Total available lanes is ~57 (22 + 22 + 10 + 3). We'll either have more than two courses available for the meet or we'll have a ton of warm up space (a rarity for masters nationals).
