      Actual the alge is in the water source. DC is a swamp. (in more than one way.) The pool needs to be removed. No one cares about a vanity pool that is a gaint tax sink.

        Artificial lakes just do that kind of thing. If you empty them and fill again, you run the risk of getting a more algy equilibrium.

        It will probably disappear in some time. Either that or it will become a toxic cesspool that you can smell for kilometers.

          As someone who used to like the pool, I hope this happens and stays that way until we sort our shit out.

            afaik there was a plan created that wasn’t executed for some reason, so you’re probably right: when a government comes in that’s not gonna just rage over the fact that doing it right wasn’t their plan, it will get fixed by implementing a plan that was designed by engineers and professionals
