A public pool in Moline is getting an expensive facelift and now, it officially has a new name too.

The Riverside Family Aquatic Center is now called the Riverside Riverslide, the city's parks and recreation department announced Thursday.

The pool is currently under construction. The nearly $7 million improvement project includes three new water slides, a lazy river, splash pad, and nighttime lights.

The Riverside Riverslide is set to reopen in six months.
