Toronto 's most popular swimming pool was once the largest of its kind in Canada and, reportedly, the entire world.
First opened in 1925, the pool was a rare luxury: one of the first heated and chlorinated outdoor pools in the city, which allowed bathers to take a dip even when the lake water just a few feet away was too frigid. Sunnyside Amusement Park was, in its time, a crowning jewel for the city, boasting a rollercoaster, carousel and dance hall — though now all that remains of its former glory is the pool and iconic bathing pavilion, which was constructed in 1922, three years prior to the pool's opening.
