Columbus Square Fountain |
From the City Market to City Hall, downtown is well represented with fountains of all styles and sizes. A few are on your tour. If you have the opportunity to visit in person, you're sure to discover more. This neighborhood fountain is located just south of the Missouri River in a park designed as a playground. The children visiting this park can enjoy a measure of nature as the looming cityscape supervises.

Commerce Tower Sunken Garden Fountain |
A small portion of the outdoors was transplanted in this urban space. This adjunct to the thirty-two story Commerce Tower is a sunken garden 50' x 72'. It features a modernistic fountain sculpture of a lotus blossom. Vertical jets of water are propelled through the center and break against the outer leaves.

Community Federal Savings & Loan Fountain |
Free-lance sculptor Norman Brunelli was selected to design what would become the focal point of this fountain. The abstract sculpture by Brunelli was inspired by armature, the skeletal construction that a sculptor uses as support when building up his work in clay or plaster.
