FOLLOWUP: Colman Pool reopening today


(Colman Pool, photographed last year by Long Bach Nguyen)

Just announced by Seattle Parks via Twitter: “Colman Pool will be opening today for regularly scheduled programming. Thanks to our Facilities staff for their work fixing the broken pump.” The historic outdoor saltwater pool on the Lincoln Park shore has been closed since Monday afternoon because of the breakdown. Its 7-day-a-week season runs through Labor Day, and then the pool will close except for one postseason weekend, Saturday-Sunday, September 8-9. You can see the pool schedule here.

    Parks Department is out of control. They continue to accumulate more mini park areas and cannot maintain what they currently have.  How do we get Parks to maintain current parks?  Of course everyone would like Parks to acquire more land but this is not sustainable. The Coleman Pool failure and closure for several days is the latest example.

      Yeah stop. You’re online shouting at an organization consisting of hundreds of people overseeing hundreds of acres providing urban oases (yeah plural) to hundreds of thousands of people like it’s a bad dog.Yeah stop dude.
