A topping out ceremony has marked the latest milestone in construction of Worthing's new £17.9m leisure complex, which will replace the West Sussex town's Aquarena venue.
The Wilkinson Eyre Architects-designed swimming pool - recently named Splashpoint - is to include separate competition pools for diving and swimming when complete.
Other facilities will include children's shallow pools, a flume, water features and saunas and steamrooms, as well as a 385sq m (4,144sq ft) fitness suite with space for 100 stations.
Two multi-use studios, three treatment rooms and a lobby space containing a reception and a café will also form part of Splashpoint, which has a BREEAM rating of Very Good.
David Sershall, area director of contractor Morgan Sindall, said: "This innovative, striking building will provide a state-of-the art facility for the local community to enjoy."
Worthing Council leader Paul Yallop added: "This is a very exciting moment. It has taken a lot of sheer determination and nerve to get this project off the ground."
Splashpoint is due to open in May 2013.
