CRYSTAL BEACH RENOVATION

Anyone who’s ever been a kid in Madison knows what Crystal Beach is. (My personal closest tie to Crystal Beach is less for the pool, and more for the frequent punk rock shows held in the second floor of the poolhouse when I was a teenager.) For those who are new to town or visiting - Crystal Beach is our historic, riverfront swimming pool downtown. Opened in 1938, the pool has been great summer fun for generations of Madisonians. In sad disrepair, it needed a complete renovation - which the City took on in 2022 after much planning and fundraising. In celebration of its opening this summer, the City hired us to bring the story to life on film! Enjoy.
