An 8-acre Crystal Lagoons planned in Lee County

24 October, 2014 / News

A lagoon that is larger than life. To be precise, it is eight acres in size. To put that into perspective, it’s the size of nearly eight football fields.
Greg Singleton’s Metro Development Group owns a property on Pritchett Parkway in North Fort Myers, in which Crystal Lagoons will develop a giant crystalline lagoon suitable for swimming and water sports.

Crystal Lagoons is known for its elaborate lagoons around the world, where swimmers aren’t limited to just that. They can do some kayak, paddleboard and scuba diving. And there is room for everyone. It is that big.

“This will be monitored telemetrically”, he said. “And they are very inexpensive to maintain. You could not afford to do this with a 6-acre traditional pool with everything you have to put in there.”

“We are proud to enter into this partnership with Metro Development Group,” said Kevin P. Morgan, CEO, Crystal Lagoons US, Corp. “There has been a strong demand for Crystal Lagoons and its technology, especially in the U.S., and we are committed to our growth here. We are confident that the U.S. will become our number one market in the near future.”

Together, the companies are developing four lagoons just like this to be a part of housing developments.

Crystal Lagoons has developed a transformative technology that allows the construction and maintenance of unlimited-sized crystal-clear lagoons at low costs in locations throughout the world that provide a unique amenity that adds enormous value to any real estate project. Crystal Lagoons partners with real estate developers, industrial institutions and governmental entities to provide licensing for its innovative technology with applications that range from recreational to industrial and more.

Crystal Lagoons Corporation is an international innovation company that has developed and patented technology that allows for the low-cost construction and maintenance of unlimited size bodies of water in crystal-clear condition. Patented in 160 countries, Crystal Lagoons’ technology applications range widely from its recreational business, which brings the dream of idyllic beach life to any corner of the world, to its industrial variations in closed-circuit cooling, water desalination and applications for the mining industry. The technology was pioneered by Fernando Fischmann, the founder and chairman of Crystal Lagoons Corporation. A trained biochemist, Fischmann patented the technology and founded Crystal Lagoons Corporation in 2007. In less than three years since its formation, Crystal Lagoons Corporation has seen exponential growth and is currently involved in over 300 projects in more than 60 countries, including Egypt, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Singapore, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Paraguay and United States.
