Be nice with the lady in charge or you'll get into troubled water...
Best pool in Soho - if you have kids... They take a break from 3-4p.
Best time to swim: after 7 when all the kids are doing homework or getting in their jammies - Sasha Harris
Nice place to relax and enjoy the change of seasons, but go during peak hours. Park is gritty in early morning and after dark. - Ms. Dee Bell
The area that is now Highbridge Pool was once a reservoir supplying water to the entire city. Today, you can see the water tower that remains as you swim in the enormous Olympic-sized pool. - NYC Parks
