The 43-year-old facility had major renovations done in 2018 which included replacing the pool liner, bulkhead, tiling, and surge tank. The pool roof, failing brickwork, and clerestory windows were also replaced or repaired.
 
“We are excited to celebrate the re-opening of the Mount Rainier Pool,” Offered Andrea H. Reay, President/CEO of Seattle Southside Chamber. “The pool provides valuable services to our community, and with the remodel complete, we look forward to many more years of use.” 
 
Mount Rainier Pool originally opened on September 15, 1975. In November of 2009, the Des Moines Pool Metropolitan Park District was created by a vote of the citizens of Des Moines to acquire, maintain and operate Mount Rainier Pool. The City of Normandy Park and the Highline Schools District also work in collaboration and operation of Mount Rainier Pool.
