The work to renovate the McDowell County Recreation Center in downtown Marion has started and when it is finished, the complex should have a new and more accessible swimming pool improved parking and a revitalized public green space. The old pool has been dug out and there is now a big dirt hole where it once existed. The new pool is expected to open in 2025.
The work to renovate the McDowell County Recreation Center in Marion resulted in the removal of the skatepark. This is how the place looks now. The original sign for the skatepark, which opened in 2006, is still there even though the equipment for skateboarding has been taken away.
This photo, taken several weeks ago, shows the old swimming pool before the renovation work began. The old pool, which was built around 1980, had significant leaking problems and was considered outdated for today’s needs.
