Public Pools Officially Open Today

And that includes the Double D pool (no that is not the required bra size it’s the location of the pool between Douglas and Degraw Street on Nevins in Park Slope) which will open along with the rest of the NYC public pools. It was slated for closure but was saved at the last minute. Here’s the info from the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation website:

All 54 Parks outdoor pools open for the season on Tuesday, June 29 and remain open until Labor Day (September 6). General hours of operation are 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Indoor pools are open year-round. Check with the individual recreation centers for schedules. Please note that recreation center membership ($75 per year for adults; $10 per year for seniors; free for children and teens under the age of 18) is required for the use of our indoor pools.
