Where Astoria Pool appears on New York Dearest

It's on 1 of my list. Each entry below is what I wrote about it there, with my verdict on that list, the fullest first.

Worth it
  • Address19th Street & 23rd Drive, 19th St, Astoria, NY 11105
  • From my guide, updated January 2024.

The Astoria Pool is one of the best public pools in NYC thanks to its stunning view of the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. It feels quintessentially New York, being surrounded by buildings of brick and mortar yet being so full of life. Unfortunately Astoria Pool is closed during the summer of 2023 for renovations. The water features near the pools will remain open though, in case you have restless kids at home in need of cooling off.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
