Yanitelli Recreational Life Center Street View

From Montgomery Street, you’ll see a tall beige brick building with a black metal fence running along the sidewalk.

  • The pool entrance is not a main street-facing door — instead, look for a pedestrian walkway cut into the fence, about halfway along the block.

  • Once you turn into that walkway, you’ll follow it a short distance to reach the glass doors immediately on your left-hand side.

  • Go through these doors and it will lead you to the entrance of the pool on your left-hand side.
