Susan Miller, who has lived across from Belmont Pool for 22 years and was the only resident on the City Hall designated Pool advisory committee, says the stunning new Long Beach beachfront park is open and available for public enjoyment right now.

With a $100+ million Belmont Pool rebuild stopped by the drop in the price of oil, the recently completed demolition of the seismically deficient Belmont Plaza pool building has begat what Ms. Miller has named "Belmont Plaza Park."
