The two companies behind it, Family New York and PlayLab, have been using the crowdfunding website Kickstarter to raise money for the project. ConceptThe planned cross-shaped, Olympic-sized pool[3] would be used to clean the waters of the East River while providing a public space for water-based recreation.[2] With its current design, the pool would flush out up to half a million gallons of river water daily through a layered filtration system.[3][4] Over a quarter of a million gallons of filtered river water would be used to fill the pool itself.[5] The planned long-term goal is to raise a total of $15 million to fund the entire pool by 2016.[3][6] HistoryIn July 2011, the team raised over $41,000 on Kickstarter to test filtration materials using water from the East River.[7] With the help of researchers at Columbia University, the tests yielded feasibility,[8] and in July 2013 over a quarter million dollars was raised to build a 35 square foot miniature version of the floating pool.[9] The "test lab" is to be a working prototype to analyze its effectiveness in river conditions.[3][4] Since its conception, several independent companies have participated in the +POOL project, including engineering firm Arup,[4][8][10] design firm IDEO, environmental consultants from One Nature, and art institution Storefront for Art and Architecture.[11][12] The project has also been met with interest from government officials, notably New York State Senator Daniel Squadron and New York City Council Member Brad Lander.[13][14] In November 2013, Time magazine ranked +POOL as one of the 25 best inventions of the year 2013.[15] The pool was projected to open in mid-2016.[16][17] Not much visible progress was made through 2016, but in April 2017, it was announced that a partnership with Heineken was formed.[18] A new site, Swim in the River, was launched on Earth Day to raise pledges for +POOL, with a promise from Heineken-backed The Cities Project to donate $100,000 if 100,000 pledges were made. Other funding from Heineken is expected to be used in the latter part of 2017 to finance a light show that will be the size of the final +POOL installation and will reflect changing water quality.
