Pools

It's HOT in NYC.  And there is not a delightful beach. HOWEVER - there ARE public pools!  16 free public pool in Manhattan to be precise!  You can find a whole list of them here: http://www.nycgovparks.org/facilities/outdoor-pools  There are actually 34 outdoor public pools within the five boroughs, 12 indoor pools, and 19 "mini-pools."
