The lack of a new central fountain or wading pool is unacceptable for a civilized society. In addition to being beautiful (especially in front of a neo-classical building), they provide open public spaces like this with a sense of destination, a joyful focal point where children and adults can rest, play and cool their feet. They bring refreshing life and animation to what would otherwise be a very hot, dry, sterile and exposed exapanse during summer.

Imagine how inferior the Mill Bistro patio area in Coal Harbour would be without the delightful water fountains and the children running through them.
