Residents in Curtis Park neighborhood voice concerns entering another summer with pool closure

Residents of Denver's Curtis Park neighborhood are entering another summer without a pool as the Mestizo-Curtis Park pool remains closed until 2028 due to required replacement. Community coalition members, including co-founders Aurelio Martinez and Rosalie Cisneros, highlight concerns about limited access for minority families and transportation barriers, while advocating for design changes to the pool's entrance. Denver Parks and Recreation stated the project involves community engagement and a multiyear timeline.
