Market Street Pool Preparing for Opening - 1961 - Lancaster SC Photos

 


 

 Can you find the high-dive board? 

Thousands of amazing leaps, flips and cannonballs were made off this board. 

Here, city workers prepare the Market St. pool for opening in May of 1961. Many Lancaster children got their swimming lessons at this pool, which opened in 1953 at the intersection of Market St. and Chesterfield Ave.
