Not that there’s a contest, but if you were to consider ranking the best public pools in Austin, you’d have to put Deep Eddy Pool into top consideration. Just sayin’. Anyway, more splashing is on the horizon: The pool is now open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily, and the shallow end opens at 10 a.m. every day, the city announced on Wednesday. “This represents a return to normal operational hours after the well pump and other mechanical issues have been repaired,” according to the city.
