Blakehurst residents and ratespayer groups are rallying together in support of an initiative to save the pool in Blakehurst. Support for it has even extended into local candidate elections – such as Lord Mayor Clover Moore who is advocating harbour baths at Pyrmont, Elizabeth Bay, Barangaroo Rushcutters Bay Parks in Glebe Foreshore parks as part of her bid for another term at Town Hall.
