My last time in NYC (February), i went to John Jay pool, where Red Tide masters swimming club was training. They have different places to train, John Jay is just on 10th avenue and 5 mins to subway by walk toward to Columbia circle or Central Park. I'd recommend to drop by. Bring $ 5 and your USMS member card. Have great stay in NYC!

Thanks all of you for the suggestions. Unfortunately I was finished my meet before 3 and had no place to hang out until any of the teams had practice. I did call Chelsea Piers to see if I could swim there, but they said a day pass at the gym/pool would be $50.00. So I decided not to swim at all.

Here's your options. Best bet for PM might be with Red Tide in Chinatown. I've dropped in with them with no problem. Watch out, they are IM'rs! www.redtidenyc.org/.../

I think that ande posted glowing remarks about Asphalt Green last year. Check the Metropolitan LMSC for places to swim in the afternoon. http://www.metroswim.org/
