About Christian Street YMCA
It's always good to see city YMCAs with solid operating hours, especially for a big place like Philadelphia, with over 1.6 million people. The Christian Street YMCA is open pretty late most nights, till 9 PM during the week, which is nice for an after-work swim. On weekends, they open early too, at 7 AM. This one pulls in a 4.4 out of 5 stars from 415 reviews, so people generally like it. I always tell folks, a public pool like this is a good bet for year-round swimming. You can usually count on YMCAs to have decent facilities and programs for a mix of different swimmers. Give them a call at (215) 735-5800 if you have specific questions about using their pool.
