After years of planning and execution, the new $7.8 million state-of-the-art pool and splash pad complex at Veteran’s Memorial Park in Middletown is set for a June opening. Funding came from the $33.5 million 21st Century Parks Bond approved by taxpayers in 2015. The complex will open to the public on June 20. It was initially scheduled to be available for use in time for the 2022 summer season. The 64-year-old pool will be 50 percent larger than the former one. C. J. Fucci Construction is managing the project, and the city is also working with SLR Consulting, formerly Milone & MacBroom. Nocera, a lifelong resident who lived on Broad Street as a child, remembers walking to the nearby pool. “It’s a fabulous renaissance in that whole park,” enhanced by the Greater Middletown Military Museum, Connecticut Trees of Honor and skating rink on the grounds.
