New Brighton's original whale pool swims aside to make way for hot salt water pools
After 47 years of being enjoyed by thousands of children, New Brighton's original whale paddling pool has been demolished.
The pool and surrounding playground is making way for a $11.2 million hot salt water pool complex in the seaside Christchurch suburb.
A replica has been built in the $5m neighbouring playground, which opened in December 2017, but seeing the original whale go had been hard for some people, North Beach resident and Coastal Burwood Community Board chairwoman Kim Money says.
