I thought of this topic while walking back to my car after practice on Friday. Can you think of anything that (possibly) makes your pool or its setting unique? Here's my example: there's a fee for parking on campus at the U of Washington, so I park on the street in neighborhood just off campus when I swim there. The walk between the car and the pool involves crossing a drawbridge, so sometimes after practice we are delayed for a few minutes while the drawbridge is up!

My pool is 6 lane x 25 yards, 3 1/2 feet at the shallow end to 12 feet at the deep end. So far...it's unique from everyone else's pools described above because it's close to NORMAL!! :D The truly unique part is the admission cost. The high school doesn't charge us to use it during the school year...which is a big plus. One reason I can swim. :)
Sorry, not unique enough.......mine is very normal too. 25 yd x 25m (11 lanes) 6ft to 12ft deep, and costs about $20 per month, so pretty cheap!
However it is either almost empty - sometimes there's just me in the whole pool, or when the school or club come in, it is completely packed with 6 or more swimmers in each of the 9 lanes and the public in the 2 remaining ones!
