[quote=Anonymous]Look at Hearst Park on Google maps (earth view). Then consider that the pool that DC is proposing, together with deck and pool house, is supposed to fit within the footprint of one tennis court. As a 'yard' stick, look to the Sidwell football field next door, and note that the proposed Hearst pool and infrastructure would fit between the 10 and 20 yard lines and the long axis of the field. When viewed against these dimensions, DC's plan seems quite ridiculous and not worth the cost for such a small pool (assuming that DC is being truthful on dimensions). It almost seems like just a bureaucratic check-the-box exercise. ("Ward 3 pool. Check.") Instead, let DC continue the recent engagement with the National Park Service and build a proper-sized facility at Fort Reno Park.[/quote]
