The fountain, part of the New York City World Fair (1965), was installed in 1969. It was designed to create a spiral effect with stationary water jets. The sculpture in the fountain
was not originally part of the work. The sculpture, by Bill Richmond,
a former faculty member in the Art Department, was added in 1975.
