The Kenilworth Recreation Center in Washington, DC welcomed a transformed 6,378 square foot outdoor activity pool in 2017 that serves as a vibrant community gathering place. Designed in collaboration with Counsilman-Hunsaker, this facility features a beach entry play area that provides safe, gradual water access for young children and individuals with mobility challenges, paired with premium radius stainless steel gutter systems that ensure superior water circulation and the clean, modern aesthetic befitting the nation’s capital.
The beach entry design creates an inclusive aquatic environment where families feel welcome and children can build water confidence at their own pace. Main Line Commercial Pools brought specialized expertise in both the technical complexity of stainless steel gutter systems and the community-focused design principles essential for municipal recreation facilities. The result is apool that serves DC residents with the quality and accessibility standards expected of public aquatic facilities—providing a cool respite during summer months while supporting water safety education and community recreation programs that strengthen neighborhood bonds.
