The City of Alameda has added a third workshop to its series of community feedback sessions on designs for the new Aquatic Center to be built at the west end of Jean Sweeney Open Space Park. The workshop will be held on Saturday, August 3, 9:30-11:30 a.m., at Albert H. Dewitt Officers’ Club, 641 West Redline Ave., Alameda Point.

Alameda Post - a poster that says "Alameda Aquatic Center. Please join us... Help us design your new aquatic center. Community Workshop #3." and includes details on the event

Information presented at the two previous workshops is available for review online (PDF format): May 18 and June 8. Visit the City of Alameda’s Aquatic Center web page for more information.

About the Aquatic Center

The Aquatic Center will provide additional pool space to meet the needs of the community, as the current high school pools do not have sufficient capacity. The center will provide year-round and full-day programming, including swim lessons, rentals, lap swimming, camps, classes, and other activities.

The project is estimated to cost up to $30 million, with half of the funding coming from the City’s general fund and the remainder from Certificates of Participation. The facility will include competitive and recreational pools. The project is expected to break ground in 2025, with completion slated for 2027.
