The Natatorium is an ellipsoidal, above-ground structure constructed of reinforced concrete with a rubble-stone facade. The entrance is on one end through two pairs of metal doors, flanked by plaques which read "Design supervised by W. Bintz, city engineer, swimming pool designs, 1922" on one side and "J.H. Moores Memorial Natatorium. A.D. 1922" on the other. Decorative parapets project on each side of the entrance. Original window openings have been filled in. A balustrade of reinforced concrete runs along the top, with lamp posts at regular intervals.(Submitted on January 21, 2023, by J.T. Lambrou of New Boston, Michigan.)
