They are and I hope they do.

I sure hope so. They looked pretty beat up to me, but can't imagine why else they would have taken them down last.

And what, reuse them for the new natatorium that may be built or for another project?

New natatorium. Kind of like what they did with Ownby and Ford.

The new nat is going to be on the east side of 75 correct?

That's the last I heard. I do know a joint arrangement with UP to build one on the campus side of 75 has been at least suggested. Not sure if it has any legs.

Just drove by.
The arches are down. The entire building has been razed.

Down, down? Or maybe taken out and saved?

Probably not saved - didn't look like they were trying to preserve the arches this past Saturday - although there were several of the large bulbous finials that appears to have set aside as if they were being saved/recovered for other future purposes - guessing the demolition company will try to sell what they recovered as part of their contract. They did the same to a bunch of the stonework and bricks on the Health Center, too, which is now mostly gone as well.

No announcements on a new natatorium. The working assumption has been just east of N. Central on SMU Blvd; however, they are keeping it close to the chest. I expect an announcement in November.

Are they going to train in the outdoor pool in winter?
