A spectacular water fountain set in Grant Park. Dedicated to Clarence Buckingham by Kate Buckingham. A complete mechanical and structural makeover was completed in April of 1995 at a cost of $10 million dollars. - sys, 12/26/1999
Restored in 1995, the fountain features a computer-coordinated symphony of water and colored light at dusk every night (around 8pm) until 11pm during operational months. The display is orchestrated by remote from an Atlanta-based Honeywell computer 708 miles away. - Star G., 07/08/2003
