Ambitious waterpark mooted for UkraineThe world's largest aluminium-domed waterpark will soon dominate the city skyline in Donetsk, Ukraine. Scheduled to open in August 2011, the dome over the Royal Marine Aquapark - a joint venture between the city of Donetsk and a consortium of private sector investors - is being built by Canadian firm OpenAire. The 26m high, 85m wide dome will replace developers' original plan to have a steel/polycarbonate structure with a fixed dome. "The developers loved the idea of a retractable roof," said OpenAire president, Mark Albertine. "To them, it opened the park up to a whole new world of possibility." |
