The Aquatic and Recreation Center at West Hollywood Park is still under construction and a re-opening date is still to be determined.The fence surrounding most of West Hollywood Park was scaled back on January 25, 2022, allowing public access to most of the WeHo Park green areas. There is now access to Robertson Boulevard through the park. A fence currently surround the Aquatics and Recreation building, which remains closed until some time in April of this year. Airial views of the pool area show the smaller pool has been drained due to leaking issues.

Incredible waste of money. The pool leaking is another example of the city getting ripped off. It’s a travesty. How are we this far into the construction and the kid’s pool is empty. Then you have the children’s playground closed. Little kids pass the playground they can’t use and will most likely look at the kiddie pool they can’t use use as well. Shameful.
