The construction of the world's first sky pool, a staggering see-through stretch of water that will float between two luxury skyscrapers under construction in London.
The two residential skyscrapers that the pool is wedged between are next-door to the new $1 billion US embassy due to open in January, meaning residents will be able to watch diplomats in action while they swim.
The 25-metre long, three metre deep crystal clear pool will allow members of the development's exclusive club to glide between buildings 10 storeys up in the sky.
The two residential skyscrapers that the pool is wedged between are next-door to the new $1 billion US embassy due to open in January, meaning residents will be able to watch diplomats in action from while they swim.
The development, called Embassy Gardens is on London’s South Bank, a short walk from the MI6 building and Battersea Power Station, meaning swimmers can take in views of London, even looking over the river at Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament.
It will include 2,000 apartments, starting at £600,000, and rising to £5 million for the penthouse suite.
A 'Sky Deck' - at the top of the two buildings - will also feature a spa, summer bar and Orangery for residents to relax.
The building is the complete opposite of the moat being constructed at the embassy, which is designed to thwart any form of terrorist attack.
