We added Janette Sadik-Khan, Dr. Shaden Marzouk and Nora Cronin to the team

We added three brilliant women to the + POOL team in January 2021 as we began to embark on next steps with NYCEDC for + POOL.  Following our milestone “Confirmation to Proceed” on the project in the waters north of the Manhattan Bridge we knew we needed to expand the team for the next phase of + POOL’s development. To start, this included two new board members and one new staff member to help bring our project to fruition!

Janette oversaw the 2013 launch of Citi Bike, the nation’s largest bike-share system and added more than 400 miles of bike lanes in New York City during her time as Commissioner of the Department of Transportation. Shaden is an MD and an MBA who has extensive experience across all areas of the health sector.  Nora joins us on the day-to-day as a full-time staff member who has experience working in NYS agencies and NYC aquatics. Together, these three incredible women will join the rest of the + POOL team to provide expertise in their fields and help lead the organization and project through its next phases.
