The manufacturer of the world's largest artificial swimming pools, Santiago, Chile-based Crystal Lagoons, has announced plans to build its massive recreational lagoons in the United States.
In a deal announced on June 25, Tampa, Fla.-based Metro Development Group will oversee construction of four artificial lagoons in Florida using Crystal Lagoons' technology. "In terms of final size, we're trying to make them each a minimum of 5.5 acres, maybe over eight acres in size on some sites," says Greg Singleton, Metro Development Group president.
