The pool appears in the Bulletin municipal as early as the interwar period, in connection with facility matters: in 1926, the installation of shower heads, estimated at 500 francs for two heads, was to be funded from the leftover funds of the operation, and in 1929 the Bulletin presented it as having been inaugurated in May 1924, the first pool put into operation on this model, with a 700-cubic-meter pool. Maintenance then came up regularly: in 1938, after condensation and inclement weather had damaged the glazed window frames of the swimming hall, their replacement was reported to the Council, and in 1952 the four-meter diving board was removed for safety reasons, with a question addressed to the Prefect of the Seine asking whether it would soon be replaced. In 1963, a speaker in session lamented that the procedure related to creating a pool at the Butte-aux-Cailles, decided in March 1961, had taken three long years. Finally, in 1975, the Bulletin reported a very large number of letters from users and noted that the pool, fed by an artesian well, only requires supplementary heating.
