Friends of +POOL has finished constructing the floating vessel for New York City's first water-filtering swimming pool, set to open at Pier 35 in 2026.
Fire officials confirmed that at least three individuals were hospitalized due to excessive chlorine exposure at a swimming pool in a Livermore health club. The incident occurred at approximately 4:30 p.m., raising concerns about pool safety and the potential need for health regulations to be addressed at such facilities.
"We have been granted planning permission to install a glass cover on the roof of our pool to enable year-round use, which we greatly appreciate. However, the new restriction on weekend and bank holiday usage poses challenges for our educational and extracurricular programmes."
