+POOL will be floating in the east waterway by the middle of this year
Lucky New Yorkers could soon be swimming in a floating, shaped pool of freshly sifted East Stream water. After more than a decade in the making, +POOL is finally about to become a reality. The novel arrangement was first imagined in 2010 by a small group of designers who sent off +POOL with the fantasy of safely swimming in the East Waterway. At its heart, the venture will act as an amphibian sifting office, cleaning 1,000,000 gallons of the notorious - though incredibly improved - river water every day. Last Friday, lead representative Kathy Hochul reported a $16 million speculation from both the city and the state, with plans to begin full-scale testing as early as the summer of 2024. After that, the group hopes to complete the project as a free and open public pool by the following year.
