The student leaders at Thomas O’Brien Academy of Science and Technology (TOAST) teamed up Wednesday with Mayor Kathy Sheehan, Superintendent Joseph Hochreiter and local and state officials to break ground on a new Lincoln Park pool.
The new pool will be located at the site of the old pool, just down the hill from TOAST. Best of all, Â鶹ӰÒô residents will get to swim for free!
Plans call for the new pool to open on July 4, 2025.

The pool area will consist of a 10,000-square foot walk-in pool (no stairs or ladders). It also will include a 10-lane lap pool, a splash pad, a water slide and half-sized Olympic lap pool. The historic 1930s-era bathhouse next to the pool is being renovated, as well.
