The Uytengsu Aquatics Center was originally built in 1983 as the McDonald's Olympic Swim Stadium, serving as the venue for the swimming, diving, and synchronized swimming events during the 1984 Summer Olympics. In 2012, a $16 million renovation was initiated, funded by a donation from Fred Uytengsu. The renovated facility, renamed the Uytengsu Aquatics Center, was officially opened in 2014.

The Uytengsu Aquatics Center features a 50-meter by 25-yard outdoor pool, a diving well with towers, and a recreational pool. The facility also includes a strength and conditioning room, team meeting rooms, coaches' offices, and a scoreboard with video capabilities.
