POOLS..POOLS...DUMPSTER POOLS

Dumpster Pools are making a splash in the Gowanus area of Brooklyn! Artist Jocko Weyland heard another artist in Athens, Georgia made dumpster pools and decided to give it a go at a parking lot in Brooklyn. Working as a test case for design team Macro Sea, a company trying to reinvigorate American strip malls as community spots for the people here are articles, videos and links about this project. I'M IN LOVE!

POOLS!

Thanks to Kfir for this AMAZING tip.

Artist Kelly Loudenberg took video of the pools being constructed. Watch that here on Babel Gum !
