Next summer, people going for a swim at Washington Heights’ Highbridge Pool and Recreation Center will enjoy the use of Splash House—an outdoor pavilion created by students in Parsons’ DESIGN WORKSHOP and New York City Parks and Recreation. Splash House reorganizes foot traffic through the center and provides new lockers and areas for changing. The addition of the pavilion means that the center can offer recreation programs year-round and will not have to be transformed into a space for pool goers in the summer. Students also developed a master plan for future capital improvements for the center.
