  3. I believe the pool was located in the southwest quadrant of Konnoak Drive and Silas Creek Parkway, and that the construction of the parkway did not pass directly over the pool’s location. I used to go to the pool as a kid. It had been abandoned for years but still retained enough water to support a colony of tadpoles.
