The Last Lengths: Duncan McNab's Vancouver Aquatic Centre...

What this episode covers

The Vancouver Aquatic Centre closes for good on June 28th. This solo episode covers Duncan McNab, the overlooked architect behind the 1974 building, its clever engineering, the politics of its replacement, and Vancouver's habit of erasing its own architectural history. Plus a personal story about what this building meant to me.
