Makes a person wonder who is at the bottom of the pool.

To keep the bodies from floating to the top.

You reminded me of the segregationist South of my youth. When all public facilities were ordered to integrate, municipal swimming pools were filled with concrete. I remember one tiny pool next to a fire station on the main road. One day kids were having fun all over the place and then, the next day, it was a level surface with the ground around it. Very few children understood. Further proof that Republicans didn't exist down here back then.

Why would someone fill in a pool with concrete?.....So they wouldn’t get sued up the Wazoo for someone drowning or jumping into an empty pool?

I wondered, too.

Why not just use fill dirt? Seems like concrete potentially makes for a lot of extra work later, if ever the site is to be used for something else.

Pools quickly become hazards if they're not maintained - and ‘maintaining’ costs money and time. They become draws for mosquitoes, snakes, algae, alligators, and lawyers looking for ways to sue Disney...
