As far as downtown or in the quarter, there is really nothing. The best pools are at the schools uptown. Try out Loyola or Tulane. Loyola&#39;s might be a little more accessible. There is also the Isadore Newman School, which is also uptown (Jefferson Ave I think!). Here are links to their sites. <a href="http://www.loyno.edu/recreational.sports/hours.html">www.loyno.edu/.../hours.html</a> E-mail Kristi Salvaggio (kristi@loyno.edu) to get info. If you have a problem with Loyola, PM me and I will see if they will do anything since I am an alum and I practically lived in that pool. <a href="http://www.reilycenter.com/aquatics.asp">www.reilycenter.com/aquatics.asp</a> I don&#39;t really have a contact a Reily, but their facility is nice. Isadore Newman is only open during Master&#39;s workouts Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 5:30-7:00 am. <a href="http://www.nolaswimming.com/facilities.html">www.nolaswimming.com/facilities.html</a> There is a pool at UNO (which is way over on the lake), but last I heard, it was closed due to damage, and from the Marriot, that is a LONG haul. Let me know how it goes!<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/117795?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 30 Jan 2009 12:59:34 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:7f8e4640-8e4a-4413-8a38-ca36e09cc682orca1946You might try the state site to find a local place .
