What's being upgraded:

🔹 Pool deck resurfacing & new drain covers
🔹 Fresh interior painting of walls, ceiling & ductwork
🔹 New overhead lighting
🔹 Humidity corrections & repair of rusted metal at the slide tower
🔹 New diving board & starting blocks
🔹 Replacement of translucent panels and skylights at the slide tower
🔹 Improvements to Men's & Women's locker rooms

These renovations will deliver a refreshed look, improved functionality, and important safety enhancements for all visitors.

Timeline:

🔨 Construction begins: June 2026
✅ Expected completion: Approximately three months

What about swimming during construction? The city is working on an agreement with the City of Fairview Park to provide Westlake Rec Center members access to the new indoor pool at the Gemini Center. Members can also purchase a separate pass for the Westlake Aquatic Center outdoor facility — pass sales begin in March 2026.
We appreciate your patience as we make these exciting improvements. Stay tuned for updates!
