[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of us have kids and don't want the pool for environmental reasons. [/quote] +1. I looked at the website of the "Friends of Hearst Pool" (which seems to be the project of one man who has a letter in this week's NW Current.) The photos show quite clearly that there really is no good site for a pool, and only passable sites if they eliminate (1) all of the tennis courts; (2) most of the playing field; or (3) the turb field and the basketball court and possibly more of the upper playground. None of these is an acceptable tradeoff for most park users. The "Friends" photos also demonstrate one other thing: how beautiful and valuable this green park is today, with its large trees that both shape and frame this urban oasis.[/quote]
