The pool here is a nice facility, with an updated locker room and the construction around it is finished. It's a lovely place for practice.However, the seating is steep and close quarters, the deck is tight, and getting to the locker room is a maze. Parking is always an adventure on the Union campus-- there's a small row for vehicles in front of the facility, but otherwise, you're looking for a lot on campus and wondering "is this ok? Can I park here?" (This has gotten tougher with construction in the area ~10/24/22)Before the pandemic, all of these traits made it a charming inconvenience when you came to watch a meet for a cozily uncomfortable 3ish hours. I'd keep the rating even now, because the kids said they had plenty of room as they competed at Region 1 this weekend. Even when we go back to regular spectating for meets, this site will keep its cramped shine.

Great gym! Excellent place to work out. If you’re a student or alumnus, I highly recommend. Half of the first floor has cardio machines, as well as muscle group training machines. On the bottom floor you’ll find the weight training area.

This is the college pool for Union college. My daughter swims on a swim team who uses this pool for practice, so we are here a few times a week. It's a nice pool with a length of roughly 45 yards with a bulkhead that can be moved to change the length of the pool. There are 3 alternating sized diving boards. There is a bleacher area for spectators & an observation deck outside the pool with couches in which one can sit & have a great view.

As a College student, this gym is not big but enough for me.

Not sure why you are looking at a review of this place, but I like it. I play squash here at least once a week mostly because they have the only courts in town. Clean, up to date equipment and plenty of heavy things to be lifted if that is what you do. If on the other hand, you are a refined person and know how to play squash, I'm always looking for partners to play there.
