HIGHBRIDGE PARK AND POOL

Swam the second day in a row this morning at the epic Highbridge Pool twelve blocks south of us. Another huge water complex like Hamilton Fish, Highbridge was constructed under the auspices of über urban planner Robert Moses for the benefit of the public. and has the impact of some kind of national aquatics stadium. Free as all these outdoor pools, even fewer people lap swim here, like maybe 3-5 people at the most. Water is on the brisk side but who’s complaining when it keeps you cool for an hour or so afterwards.
