Sparrow pool was a Carrboro community hub until they shut it down in the 1940s. The town's decision to shut it down coincided with the time they would have been forced to integrate.
In 2006 and 2007 Carrboro Greenspace screened movies here as the WITT -- Walk-In Tributary Theater. www.carrborocitizen.com/main/2007/08/02/fighting-for-gr...
Now the pool is broken and abandoned, but some graffiti artists have adopted it as their canvas.
