The Houston Sky Pool

[ Edited ]

I just read about a 42 story high glass bottom pool on top of one of Houston's newest luxury apartment buildings. Part of the pool extends over the street. 

 

 

Would you swim in this? I'm a swimmer, but there is NO WAY ever I would even go up to see it. Of course the fact that I'm afraid of heights might have something to do with it! LOL! 

 

It's only a matter of time before we see one of the "unsuspecting" contestants on The Bachelor franchise going on a date here! The producers love locations like this!

Heck no. What will they think of next? Not that it matters, I'd probably be too chicken.

Doesnt look big enough for swimming; more like an oversized bathtub with everyone sitting.  Not my cup of tea.

It makes me nauseous just looking at it. I saw the one in Toronto and just looking down, not going near it threw me for a loop.

 

The ones in Chicago had so many people gathered in that little space along with little kids lying on the floor - ugh not for me!

When these glass pools are all sparkly they look appealing. (From a distance) But,

how do they keep them clean?

Not for me, I do not like heights, although I have been in very high building before, but no more...My stomachcan't take it...... A cool experience if you aren't afraid of heights..
