The Vancouver Aquatics Centre is an indoor facility.[1] It replaces the Crystal Pool at Sunset Beach that was opened in 1928 and was demolished in 1974.[2] A contract to renew the facility was let in 2023 and the project is expected to take seven years to complete.[3] The pool is the home of the Canadian Dolphin Swim Club[4] which has contributed to the success of many British Columbia and Canada athletes and coaches.[5]
