Swimming Pool at Washington Park El Paso, Texas

Piscina en Washington Park El Paso, Tejas

Esta piscina se ubicaba en Washington Park. La ciudad había comprado tierras de El Paso County Fair Association (Asociación Feria del Condado de El Paso) por $66 (EUA) en 1893. La parcela fue nombrada Washington Park. Tony Carvajal, un joven que perdió su pierna izquierda en un accidente de tren, finalmente trabajó como salvavidas en el parque. Los funcionarios del parque afirmaron que Carvajal era el único salvavidas con una pierna en el país. Él salvó las vidas de nueve nadadores en un verano.
