[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The spot next to the Wilson Aquatic Center is the head of Soapstone Creek. If you think the manufactured hydrology issues at Hearst are real then there is no way you would honestly suggest placing anything on that location where there is a real hydrology issue.

And Ft. Reno has already been rejected by NPS.

The site isn't in the woods by the stream bed, but rather on the level grassy expanse just SW of the Wilson pool entrance.  Not the most scenic spot in the world, but very central, accessible (by Metro, bus and lots of parking) and efficient (opportunity for shared facilities and ward swim-plex). Not to mention that Hearst would no longer be so scenic after a pool is built, either.   :)

The concept of having an indoor and outdoor acquatic center in the heart of Ward 3's "town center" is quite appealing.  How do we go for it?[/quote]

An outdoor pool to complete the Wilson aquatic complex is a great idea.  And for convenience to most of Ward 3, the location is unbeatable.[/quote]

I don't see any unused DC land where I think you are describing that is pool sized. Can you be more specific?[/quote]
