A False Creek Ferries dock is also located behind the building along sunset beach, connecting the pool with Granville Island and Kitsilano.
The pool includes a dive pool with 1m and 3m spring boards and three drive tower platforms at 5m, 7.5m and 10m. The facility hosts numerous events, swim clubs, diving clubs and various aquatic activities.

The building was designed by Duncan McNab & Partners and features an unusual shape which looks like a truncated pyramid from the outside, opened in May 1974 at which time it was a state-of-the-art facility.
