I am not sure if my sentence is grammatically correct. Is it correct to write "housing project will contain"?

The new housing project will contain beside a few dozen luxurious houses, an Olympic swimming pool, a sports hall, a library, a supermarket, and other social facilities.

I will repeat my sentence after Piscean corrections just as an exercise.

The new housing project will contain, besides a few dozen luxurious houses, an Olympic swimming pool, a sports hall, a library, a supermarket, and other social facilities.

I think the usual usage in American English is "Olympic-size​ swimming pool".
