If public transportation doesn't matter, then pretty much everyone will drive?  To a site with no off-street parking?  Even Palisades and Jelleff have parking.[/quote]

Almost all of the users of the pool will be your neighbors - the people who will walk and bike to the pool. Other neighborhoods have pools. No one coming to this pool would be taking the metro.

I just went by 37th Street. Not. One. Car parked on it. The way it is except when Hearst is session or Stoddert is using the field, neither of which will be the case when the pool is in operation.[/quote]

But the consistent themes of this thread are (1) the pool is to serve all of Ward 3; and (2) to serve a DC-wide population, which will value a safe, clean park west of Rock Creek.  So which is it?  Walkers and bikers?  Or a very-used asset for the ward and the city?  If the latter, what are the conclusions of the parking and traffic studies as to parking demand?  Has DPR started to scope this yet?[/quote]
