Plans have been revealed to build a swimming pool suspended 115 feet above Barn Elms, London. Linking two 10-story blocks of flats at the Embassy Gardens development, the pool will be part of a roof deck that offers beautiful views of the city.

The proposed swimming pool will be entirely transparent and the first of its kind worldwide. It has been designed by Arup Associates, assisted by Eckersley O'Callaghan and aquarium designers Reynolds.
"The Sky Pool's transparent structure is the result of significant advancements in technologies over the last decade," said Sean Mulryan, the Ballymore Group CEO who came up with the idea. Mulryan told Sky News, "The experience of the pool will be truly unique, it will feel like floating through the air in central London."
