It looks like it's going to be great.

I hate the pools. It shouldn't look like some bottomless abyss (the designer describes it like that). I doubt I'll ever go there once it's finished.

I actually like the pools. I think having the names of the victims engraved on the ledges around the top of the pools is a nice touch.
