Bayfront Park Fountain

According to the official social media of the park, the water feature returns after two decades, with a new redesign. The fountain now has over 500 lights, 800 jets and it can project images and videos on a central water screen. We know Ultra will take full advantage of this! Moreover, the renovation was estimated at $5.5 Million, with an operating cost of $20,000-$30,000 a month, according to Axion.

History

The fountain has been inactive longer than one would think. The original designer Japanese-American architect Isamu Noguchi created the blueprint for the fountain, opening in 1990. After a short-lived run, the fountain stayed closed fo a long time, only opening as a hot air balloon base in 2007. Now, we can enjoy the full glory of the state-of-the-art technology and architecture the fountain presents.
