The mayor will be cutting the ribbon to the long-awaited 37,950-square-foot renovated pool at 9:30 a.m., the North Brooklyn non-profit Open Space Alliance announced.
Next to the 1,500-swimmer mecca, a rec center will debut, featuring year-round gym and cardio equipment and fitness classes.
The pool offers free admission and membership to the rec center is $100 annually, Parks officials said.
