No, you won’t be singing any Disney song when you go under the pool.
It’s dirty and dark and forgotten … Except by Travel Instructor David Nietfeld, who today took the Philosophy class on an historical tour of the Center, which was formerly a YMCA. Since part of the student body was off at a boxing gym and another in our gym doing Martial Arts, David had a smaller contingent to take on his tour. He explained where there were once windows overlooking the raquetball courts, whose office once were locker room showers and whose had toilets at one time.
Finally, he took the class around the back stairs and into a locked corridor, then another filled with low-hainging pipes and a ramp and steps and even spider webs to the side of the former indoor pool. It’s covered over now and above is storage, while inside the pool is … well, more storage. To get in, a door was cut into the side of the pool and there’s even a light switch, but it’s not pretty under the pool anymore.
But it is an adventure!
