Pacific Grove Aquatics Center

WRD Architects worked with Pacific Grove Unified School District to replace a deteriorating 1950s-era aluminum pool with a new Aquatics Center. The existing L-shaped pool was replaced with a new 25-yard by 25-meter pool, accompanied by accessibility upgrades to the existing locker rooms, a new outdoor mechanical shed, exterior showers, and a new set of diving boards.

The expanded high school pool now serves both students and the greater Pacific Grove community, supporting a wider range of programming—including beginner and adult swim classes, as well as new offerings such as water polo.
