2009
Gowanus, Brooklyn
One summer, we rented a junkyard in Brooklyn and turned it into a lo-fi lido. The pools were a test for a larger concept about making vacant strip mall parking lots into places that people could use. They’d have pools for rent, complete with cabanas and grills. We tried it out in Brooklyn, and the pools became their own thing.
