Paved walking paths were added to the north and south sides of the pool to replace worn grass and to prevent further erosion . Construction on the 18 - month, $30.74 million project began in November 2010 . In May 2011, workers began sinking the first of 2,113 wood pilings into a 40 - foot deep layer of soft, marshy river clay and some dredged material atop bedrock to support a new pool . The pool reopened on August 31, 2012 . The project was managed by the Louis Berger Group . </P>
