Reflective pool is filling up!

After all the repairs, sandblasting the surface, applying the primer (light blue), and spraying the sealant (American flag blue), it's ready to fill with water again!
Hopefully this helps it a great deal.

@Smokeybear : It is officially named the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. But I'm sure it also depends on which side you are on if you are referencing your location there.

@Atascocita888, yep after being built in the 1920s and failed upgrades in the 80s. IMO, it didn't need an additional alteration/modification. Surely, the money could've gone elsewhere, no?

@Atascocita888 : Yes, it was a complete overhaul of the substructure to fix the sinking issues. Pilings were driven into the soft muddy soils to support the weight of the pools. It was more than a paint job.
