Jackie Robinson Pool in New York, New York

“It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood overlooking Jackie Robinson Park & Pool on Edgecombe Ave. Enjoying an afternoon walk on this warm & sunny day. There's an enchanting cool breeze that sways the tree leaves back & forth. It's picturesque. This park which stretches from 145th Street up to the Polo Grounds Towers Projects on 155th Street & Bradhurst Avenue. Fond memories flood my mind as I think of my youthful su”

“Honestly, the pool was clean but it has things inside that I cant really tell what that was. The workers were VERY disrespectful and had an attitude. Started yelling at a lady with her kids because she didn't have a lock, and that poor lady could hardly speak English. They just be hiring anyone these days.ud83eudd26ud83eudd26”

“Horrible!! The workers not the pool. Over aggressive extremely rude unorganized staff. Im not sure who would hire people like this to work with children/ the public. NEVER going back there and I live a block away. Sad.”

“This is a giant pool, but due to lifeguard shortages itu2019s never fully open. As of today, July 16,2024, they have 1 hour sessions from 11-6 with a midday break. They are rotating people out of the pool every hour because of the lines outside, and every time Iu2019ve walked by there is a long line of people waiting to get in. Prepare to wait to get in and have 1 hour to swim. You must be wearing a bathing suit and you must”

“This is my go to pool every summer. It's close by, always clean, never crowded even if you go on the weekends. The staff is always friendly, you just need a swimsuit & a lock and your off to have fun & swim! Its great for the kids and if you have toddlers there is a playground with sprinklers, the sessions are 11a-3p & 4p-7p, I always take the kids for the first session and after there are plenty of places around the”

“Iu2019ve lived in this area for 5 years now and just discovered this gem, the pool is massive and very well staffed. A police station is near and officers are always present, very family friendly. Pro tip: 11 am - 2:30 pm are the best hours. Entrance is free and if you bring a bag you must bring a lock, if you bring two bags then two locks. Lockers are about 12x12 so donu2019t pack too much. No cellphones allowed in the pool”

“It was a bit cold but there is a cool little sprinkler area next to the pool. There are many teenage kids that are not with parents, cursing, play fighting, and splashing, but overall sweet and will apologize if they wet you by mistake. I went Friday at 4pm and it wasn't too crowded. Staff looks tough but will flash a smile if you give one first. Locker area is small but clean. You shouldn't wait until the last momen”
