Description
Officially named the Herbert C. Morris Memorial Fountain, this 1964 public art commission was crafted in bronze and granite by sculptor Henry Mitchell. Shade trees and surrounding tables and chairs make the perimeter an easy resting and meetup spot near the snack bar, while the fountain itself is often lit in the evenings.
