Wet and Wild

I was in Battery Park about two weeks ago and noticed this stunning fountain.  It's basically in the shape of a spiral, and at night, lights up cream coloured, with one shot of blue in the center.  Rather than being closed off with a pool, it is part of the sidewalk.  Which means that, if you walked over it in a moment of calm, you might think that you were standing in a puddle, and then suddenly be attacked by jets of water!  I was hoping to watch someone do this, but alas.  Nothing quite so funny happened.  Maybe next time I'm there, I'll forget and get swamped.

Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA
If you enjoyed this, take a look at The Little Ship for a very different fountain.
