Entertainment & Activities

The summer heat in NYC can get bad, and this is a great pool to help beat the heat only a mile away from our house. It's a massive Olympic sized pool (or maybe bigger). It's clean and not too crowded. Its fun! You just need to bring a lock to use the lockers which is required for entrance, but if you don't have one, they sell them 2 blocks away for 5 dollars.
