Paine Aquatic Center
Grand Rapids, MI
The City of Manistee and Manistee Area Public Schools entered into an Interlocal Services Agreement for the operation and maintenance of the new community swimming pool. Counsilman-Hunsaker and Integrated Architecture designed the natatorium with an eight lane 25-yard competition pool, which can also accommodate water polo. Pool gutters are constructed of concrete and tile in a deck level configuration for easy ingress/egress. The facility also includes a shallow warm water pool with a large entry stair and a depth range from 3 ft. to 6 ft. An ADA transfer system, a resistance/current device, and a hydrotherapy bench were also included.
