About Arlington's Shirley Woods/yorktown

If you are not attending open houses in North Arlington this Sunday, you might want to check out the grand opening of the new Yorktown High School Swimming Pool. The Yorktown High School's brand new aquatic center will feature a ribbon cutting ceremony will take place at noon, and the pool will open immediately after for free swimming. This has been a much anticipated opening as the current Yorktown pool has been ready for retirement for quite some time and living in the shadow of the new Washington Lee facilities on Quincy. Yorktown pool is at 5200 Yorktown Boulevard, but the parking lot is on the 28th Street side.

If you are looking to buy or sell a house in the Yorktown High School district and want a plugged in local Realtor, give me a call.
