Gowanus Lounge: Serving Brooklyn

Brooklyn Nostalgia Moment: McCarren Pool

May 20th, 2006 · No Comments

Since tickets for the July 29 Bloc Party show at McCarren Pool are on sale today, Gowanus Lounge thought this a good time to flash back in time (by a year). We’re not saying that McCarren Pool was better around this time last year when this photo was shot, before undergoing the $200,000 facelift that scored a concert contract for Ron Delsner Productions. McCarren Pool was no doubt at its best back in the days when it was a pool. We offer this as photographic evidence of what McCarren looked like a year ago. Oh, and one other thing: McCarren Pool even has its own logo as a concert venue, a graphic of its landmark entry arch.
