The Lincoln Center fountain is finished and open for sitting. Doesn't it look like a smoking ashtray? Supposedly its design is similar to the roof on the new restaurant that is in the area where the old reflecting pool was. Yawn.
Anonymous sources connected with the L.C. security detail said that they are not happy with the new fountain design. Whereas before when the beautiful stone fountain was in place, they had considerable difficulty keeping people out of the water. Not only does the new fountain have lower seating, but there is more than ample room under the seating for little children to climb into the water. Basically, it's now ugly and an attractive nuisance.
The little curvy things underneath? They're water hoses. Nice!

Mmm, it's not the cost attractive water fountain I've ever seen. I love the traditional ones I saw when I was in Rome a couple of years ago.
