GOALS STATEMENT:
The goal of the master plan is to return the site to its former glory, where the water was cleaner and the experience of the pool was more enjoyable.
The plan intends to propose appropriate additions and renovations to the swimming pool, its buildings and its grounds that respect the fragility of this unique natural and historical setting and also accommodate the significant user demands on Austin's most popular park amenity
