Pool Finder on the Recreation Department website indicates that the pool was closed for repairs, but I didn’t see any signs of life at this rec center at all.
Their Facebook page has posts indicating that the center will be open as of July 1 but that the fields are being rebuilt. To be fair, I did not try the front door, so there is that.
Lots of construction going on (though no signage indicating plans or anything else), similar transitional state to Vare Pool with an L-shape that looks like 2 to 5 feet with ladders, but it’s hard to tell since I can’t see the side of the pool directly adjacent to the wall.
Nice to see that at least some of the buildings in this neighborhood are being rehabbed and rebuilt rather than destroyed with ugly boxes. 
Outside of the Cohocksink Rec Center reminds me of the walls at Kendrick Pool in Roxborough

Empty pool in the distance; it is impossible to get closer without breaking the law.
