1050 Burrard Steet, Vancouver

These fountains are found in the large and varied landspace below the Wall Tower on Burrard Street. The main fountain is voluminous, splashy, square and loud and is spectacularly bathed in bright white light at night, alright! It is plunked down in the center of the pathway between Burrard Street and the Wall Tower main entrance so you can't miss it. The smaller fountains are found along the edge of the building's courtyard on Burrard Street. These small fountains fall into a long rectangular pool which has regularly spaced tree planters, and drains into a trough along Burrard Street. The water flows down the trough into a drain along coarse black flagstones. At night the entire courtyard has various coloured lights which are picked up by the fountains and ponds and creates a magical sparkling effect.
