Description

This WPA swimming pool in Fayette City Park was built in 1936. This above ground pool is one of the few remaining Bintz Pools built during the 1930’s.  It has an oval shaped design with the entrance on the north side, flanked by dressing rooms, the roofs of which form the walkways around the pool.  It has an art deco design, one of only such buildings in Fayette, though the school in New Franklin also has an art deco design.
