After closing in 2012 because of structural concerns, former Mayer Kasim Reed rebuilt a new $23.5…read moremillion, 64,000-square-foot Recreation and Aquatic Center in the Old 4th Ward towards the end of 2017. The new facility is sparkling and definitely worth visiting if you haven't seen it yet and becoming a member if you swim work out regularly. We paid about $250 for the family to join for the year and the bonus is that it gives the whole family access to all Atlanta public pools. The building is very open, bright (lots of natural light come in through the glass), and beautifully built. While ATL isn't the Northeast, winter is still somewhat more of a period of hibernation for a lot of people and the opening of this center provides a very nice public option for continuing to be active. It seems like they offer a wide variety of classes and activities for kids. While I can't speak to the basketball gym, workout facilities, and indoor running track on the second floor, the pool is great. It's helped our toddler develop an appreciation for the water and we haven't even tried their infant swim program yet. Some highlights of the pool are that the water is very warm, they have a beach front walk-in, a separate family changing room, a variety of aquatic toys for kids to enjoy, and a few fun sprinkler type poles in the pool. For parents looking to entertain their kids this could be a great drop-in option too at just $5 a visit I believe. My only complaints are 1) We've waited months to get our membership cards and the machine that prints them is always down or unavailable for some reason. This is obviously not such a big deal but 2) As this "undiscovered" gem is no longer so undiscovered, we've seen more and more swimmers come to the pool and it can be difficult to find a free lane to swim in now (especially around peak hours weeknights after work). This may just be what happens as you become a victim of your own success. The pool is huge but it's unfortunate that the way they built it the lanes cannot be expanded or added easily because the free swim section has a giant physical barrier from the lanes part.

There are a number (four, I think) of lighted tennis courts that stay busy during the spring and summer.

There are two covered areas for cook-outs and the bathrooms are regularly cleaned. Nice park.

They provide the chairs and rectangle tables. You must pay in full in advance and you are either able to choose a Friday party from 5:30 - 8 or Saturday from 2:30 - 5 PM. We opted for Saturday because we figure that most people would be able to come. It is important that your guests arrive on time, because there is a designated swim time and party room time. Some of our guests were late and ended up not being able to swim. Overall, it was a great experience and we enjoyed. My son really enjoyed himself. The staff was friendly and hospitable. We also took advantage of the summer swimming lessons (including free swim week) and my son has really made great progress. I highly recommend it if you are in the area.

Great community asset…read more This pool is conveniently located in Washington Park only a few minutes from I 20. There are swim lessons, meets and open swimming. The staff are friendly and inside is clean. I'm taking one star off for the lack of cleanliness on the outside. There were chicken bones and food debris in the parking lot and right outside the main entrance. When I saw that I was concerned that the inside would be dirty, it was not and is much cleaner inside than some other county owned Natatoriums in the Atlanta Region. The showers have warm water and the pool is heated. The air conditioner was on in the locker room but that may be necessary to control the humidity. Overall, I'm glad this is close to where I live and that I am able to take private lessons here via All Star Swim Academy.

This is our neighborhood pool and small gym. We joined when we bought a house in GWP a few years…read moreago. The pool itself is an olympic lane pool with a few nods to those with kids. The gym is very small but nice and fairly up to date (I rarely use the gym). The atmosphere is somewhere between hotel and Kawanis club - often the entire place is overrun with kids of all ages, mostly well behaved but there are times when they get out of hand and parents are nowhere to be found. There's a fountain area for little ones and those with abluthophobia. Memberships are available to GWP residents and anyone with a few thousand dollars burning a hole in their pocket. Recently a lifetime membership fell to $999 bringing a glut of new members and making the place overcrowded on weekends and holidays. The membership can be bought and sold in the event of a move or relocation. The management company responsible for running things does a less than stellar job as often the wireless internet does not work and there are frequent unexplained instances of access cards going bad. An attendant was added this year and he does a great job of keeping the pool area and locker rooms clean and in working order. God bless him - there are members who bathe their entire families and dress them for church in the locker rooms. Ideally this pool should be altered to be more of a resort style with in-water seating, more shaded areas on the deck and in the pool. A dedicated kiddie pool would be a welcome addition. There is little if any parking and that which does exist will most likely disappear as more homes are built adjacent to the pool/condos. The pool board (neighbors and volunteers) puts on at least one party a year and provide the beer, food and entertainment for members. This not to be missed event (sometimes two) is usally the kickoff to the summer season and gets to be more of a tailgate party by late afternoon. Chris always does a great job organizing and making sure we all have fun! Overall a good way to spend an afternoon especially if you live in or near GWP. You olympic hopefuls would enjoy swimming laps here in the morning or evenings. I've spent many a Saturday afternoon working on my skin cancer here and appreciate the short walk home after a few locally made margartias find their way to my tummy.
