SGV Aquatic Center

Project Background

The San Gabriel Valley Aquatic Center was initially proposed by Supervisor Hilda Solis in December 2019. While the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation operates 30 aquatic facilities with 42 public swimming pools and 3 regional aquatic centers, many unincorporated communities still lack adequate access to aquatic facilities. The proposed aquatic center project will include an Olympic-sized swimming pool, practice/recreation pool, aquatic center building which will house changing rooms, classorooms, offices, a public park, a plaza that will connect the aquatic center to Allen J. Martin Park, parking lot, and sustainable features and landscaping.

The project will be located at 635 N. California Avenue in the unincorporated community of West Puente Valley. The proposed site for the Aquatic Center is currently open space formerly occupied by Temple Academy which will be closed by the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District by June 2021. The land will be leased to the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation by the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District.
