Thrill-seekers and adventure buffs around the world would definitely want to update their bucket list with taking a dive into this glass-bottomed pool which is 40 storeys high.
If you like your relaxing swim to come with a side of sheer terror, then this is just the swimming pool for you – floating over the street 40 stories in the sky.
The pool at Market
Square Towers in Houston cantilevers from the roof 500 feet above Market Square and extends beyond the edge of the building with an 8-inch thick plexiglass bottom that lets you see the bustling world below.
The tower is located at 777 Preston in Houston and, as you can imagine, people have an Instagram field day with photos from the hair-raising pool.
For those who just aren’t feeling the pool-in-the-sky s
cene, the complex has a more traditional pool on the fourth floor of the building.
In a bid to outperform Skydeck, a glass box that extends 1,353 feet in the air from the tallest building in Chicago, this luxury apartment high rise has made the highest pool in Texas.
The pool is situated at the rooftop of the 40-story Market Square Tower and features a see-through infinity edge pool that is 500 feet above street level, making it the city’s first glass-bottomed pool and Texas’ highest.
It also extends 10 feet beyond the side of the building to give swimmers a birds-eye view of downtown Houston below, as well as, “make it seem as if you’re floating in the sky while you take a dip,” according to Travel and Leisure.
Is swimming in this pool on your bucket list now? There is a clause though. In order to access the pool, you need to be a resident of Market Square Tower, and one-bedroom apartments at the tower start at around $2,100 a
month.
If you do visit the Market Square Tower but your heart cannot handle the Sky Pool, you can use the more tension-easing pool on the fourth-floor terrace.
