According to a social media post by Montgomery County Recreation on Wednesday morning, the white paint coating was completed at the indoor pool at the upcoming Silver Spring Recreation and Aquatic Center (video rendering below).
Construction on the South County Regional Recreation and Aquatic Center that is located at 1315 Apple Ave began in 2019. The new facility is located in Downtown Silver Spring, in the ‘Central Business District’ of Silver Spring as part of a Public-Private Partnership undertaken with the Housing Opportunity Commission and the Lee Development Group.

Pools will be designed for general swimming, low level diving, exercise, aquatic play, training and teaching. A gymnasium, exercise and weight room spaces, movement and dance studios, multipurpose activity rooms, public use space, and social space with a culinary arts kitchen will also be included.
