www.nycgovparks.org/.../af_pools.html Click on any of the five green Borough tabs. There are pools of all different sizes labled "Olympic." How can all these different sized pools be Olympic? Are they mislabled?

    Interesting that meets were held there. I don't think meets are held at any of the NYC Pools now. I wonder if something could be restarted. Are there any swimming groups that might be interested in that? You can't beat the price of usage which would probably be...nothing. The Parks Dep't holds a masters meet every year at the Chelsea Pool (an indoor 25 yard pool at 25th Street and 9th Avenue), usually in May. Best of all -- no entry fee! :banana:
