“JCC in the Bronx is a private pool, unlike the pool in Williamsburg which is run by the city”

The same civil rights laws regarding public accommodations apply.

The JCC is a private place (Legally it might be called Semi-public ) and they are allowed to make rules that a public place cannot. They can charge for admission, they can say only members can use the pool and they can have seperate swimming hours
