Hey Bob, I'm Dan's intern and upload a lot of these gigapans. The Connellsville High School is, without doubt, one of my favorite buildings and has been since I was a kid. The dimensions of the pool are actually fairly small--only about 10 x 30 at the most, but it's an interesting and nicely detailed space. I'll link some of the photos I have to this profile as soon as I upload them to flickr. Until then, enjoy the following url which will link you to a Google Book from 1919 which shows the floor plan of the three primary floors. Scroll up in the text to get a full shot of the building after completion. Floor Plan: tinyurl.com/oxy33f

Thanks, Dan. Very interesting article. Do you know the dimensions of the pool? Would have been interesting to see the Ohio twin. Bob, Normal, IL
