There are four movement joints beneath the main pools, designed to help them withstand the natural motion of the towers, and each joint has a unique range of motion. The total range of motion is 500 millimetres (19.68 inches). In addition to wind, the hotel towers are also subject to settlement in the earth over time, so engineers built and installed custom jack legs to allow for future adjustment at more than 500 points beneath the pool system. This jacking system is important primarily to ensure the infinity edge of the pool continues to function properly.
O docker; Because they can and no one else has. It's connected to a casino, and the pool and restaurants are a major destinations in Asia. The infinity edge 50 storeys up is mind blowing.

Somewhere with very bad air pollution.
There's someone that looks a bit like you in the Reuter's photo on the Daily Mail story on the hotel's opening.
Singapore
Well done. It is indeed the Sky Park at the Marina Bay Sands hotel in Singapore. What an amazing construction.
Of course I'm not really there.
Now, if you can guess a quiz about somewhere as exotic as this, why can't you guess that simple quiz from Thursday.
If it's a luxury hotel, why did they put in an above ground pool?
