The Department of Recreation, Parks, and Cultural Activities (RPCA) is currently starting a project to transform the existing pool to an interactive fountain/splash park. The improvements will be designed and built through the City of Alexandria’s Capital Improvement Program and a Community Matching Fund partnership with The Del Ray Gateway Project.
