New York City is seeking a viable plan for a floating self-filtering pool in the East River, but with the city's waterways experiencing sewage overflows every three days, the project could be a challenge
By Tyler Blint-Welsh Sept. 18, 2019 7:39 pm ET New York City wants to make a splash with a swimming pool in the East River.
The pool would jut out into the East River from a spot in lower Manhattan, according to the notice. A spokesman for the Economic Development Corporation said that the idea for the pool was a response to interest from the community. “New York Harbor is cleaner than it has ever been and so we feel it is an appropriate time to evaluate the feasibility of such a project,” he said.
“We’ve been in communication with a ton of different city agencies over the years,” she said. “We’re super excited that they’re embracing this kind of vision.”
