Good thought. You could even site it immediately adjacent to the Avenir Centre where the old telegraph building is (and adjacent Crombie lands).
Another possibility could be south of Main Street, to help sop up the oceans of surface parking down there.
There is no question however that a competition grade 50m aquatics facility with diving towers and a diving pool belongs downtown, and, not in the northwest end or on the UdeM campus. It would be a signature facility for the city, similar to the Avenir Centre.
