Reimagining How New Yorkers Engage with Rivers and Lakes
To
help reimagine how New Yorker’s can engage with the water, including
rivers and lakes, New York will create pathways and funding
opportunities to encourage real innovation in swimming infrastructure.
Governor Hochul will provide $60 million in competitive grant funding to
municipalities for the deployment of innovative,
floating pools that can allow New Yorkers to safely swim in natural
bodies of water. To help ensure floating pools meet all appropriate
public health standards, the New York State Department of Health will
provide guidance that will allow organizations to test the feasibility
of innovative swimming pool designs within the state’s natural waters.
New
York State and New York City will collaborate on launching +Pool, a
state-of-the-art swimming facility which would float in the waters
surrounding New York City. Governor Hochul and Mayor Adams announced
that the State and City would jointly fund a +Pool demonstration project
which will be tested in the summer of 2024 and opened to the public in
the following year.
