Todd Jersey Architecture is pleased to be stewarding the revival of this important civic project. We are rehabilitating and renovating the historic Richmond Municipal Natatorium—"the Plunge"—in Point Richmond, California. Constructed in 1925, The Plunge is the oldest and largest indoor pool in the San Francisco Bay Area. Once a popular spot for year-round swimming and aquatic therapy, it has been closed since August 2001 because of seismic hazards. The renovation of the Plunge includes features that make it the greenest and healthiest pool in America.
We are excited to announce that construction is near completion. For background and updates on the Plunge renovation, please visit www.richmondplunge.org.
