"So many people have told me they are looking forward to having a new Horowitz Pool and I
wanted our residents to be able to get a look at the facility before we button it up for the
winter," Champagne said. "We had hoped to open the pool this summer, but a number
of construction challenges prevented that. We're in the home stretch now."
