“Francis Pool Summer 2022 Update:
Over the winter, while performing a scheduled replacement of the pool shell, contractors discovered unexpected structural problems

Nearby alternative outdoor pools include:
Volta Park Pool – 1555 34th St., NW
Jelleff Pool – 3265 S Street NW
Banneker Pool – 2500 Georgia Ave NW”
