The city has another outdoor pool, Mirabella Pool in the North End, which opens for the season on Saturday.

Derek Zagami takes us high above the city for the best rooftop summer views, eats, cocktails and pools.

"We did not make this decision lightly," Marta Rivera, commissioner of Boston Centers for Youth & Families, said in a statement Friday."This pool is a well-loved community resource that will be missed this summer but ultimately the safety of our patrons and our staff is the priority and we cannot guarantee that the BCYF Clougherty Pool is safe to open."

Lifeguards are being redeployed throughout the Boston Centers for Youth & Families swimming network, the agency said. Residents have been upset that Clougherty is closed, with more than 1,000 people signing an online petition calling for immediate repairs. NBC10 Boston reached out to Boston Centers for Youth & Families to ask if anyone had been hurt because of the concerns that prompted the pool's closure.

Unacceptable!!

Are the residents in the North End know of the plan to shuttle Charlestown residents to the Mirabella pool? Mirabella pool is always full of North End residents! It’s a beautiful space for a pool but doesn’t have the capacity to handle Charlestown residents and the North End! 😡
