Trying to train for your upcoming triathlon in your rooftop swimming pool this summer, only to be stopped mid stroke by children in floaties splashing around everywhere? Then you might be interested in the latest trend among developers—separate swimming pools for kids. Here are three new luxury residential buildings with this aquatic amenity.

111 Murray Street, an 800-foot tower in TriBeCa, has a 75-foot pool and a 25-foot kiddie pool. Both are designed by architect David Rockwell at the request of Winston Fisher, a partner at Fisher Brothers, which is developing the condo with Witkoff and New Valley. A parent and a triathlete who puts in a lot of time in the water, he asked Mr. Rockwell to create a pool suitable for serious athletes as well as a nearby kiddie pool that their children can enjoy.

The children of supermodel Gisele Bündchen and New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will no doubt be enjoying the children’s pool at 70 Vestry very soon, as the couple just paid $20 million for a five-bedroom, 5,000-square-foot-home in the Robert A.M. Stern-designed building. The condominium, due for completion in 2018 along Hudson River Park, has a half-size Olympic swimming pool and a children’s pool, as well as hot and cold plunge pools.

Missoni Baia

Missoni Baia, the first residential collection from Italy’s "first family of fashion," has an impressive five swimming pools—a children’s pool along with an Olympic-sized lap pool, hot and cold plunge pools, and an infinity-edge pool on the Bayfront Terrace. Set in Miami’s up-and-coming Edgewater neighborhood, the 57-story tower will sit on 200 feet of waterfront on Biscayne Bay. The building will consist of 146 residences.
