About Ocean Park:
Ocean Park Apartments in Far Rockaway, Queens, owned by Related Affordable, is home to 2,772 residents, all of whom qualify for affordable housing. The pool had been empty and out of commission since Hurricane Sandy, which caused damage to the pool and destroyed its changing areas. In an effort to enhance resident services, Related has partnered with RTE to provide free swimming lessons, complimentary water safety education, and other aquatic-related services. The pilot program ran from August to September 2022. July - August 2023 marked our first year of established programming, summer 2024 will mark the third year. To date, 75 participants have successfully learned how to swim.
