Watering Holes completed in The Green Park

This morning there was the official launch of Watering Holes in The Green Park. We would like to thank Michael Freeman, the Tiffany & Co Foundation and all the staff at the Royal Parks Foundation for having made this project possible.

With three watering holes at heights from which adults, children, wheelchair users and dogs can drink cool, fresh water, this fountain is a fabulous addition to Green Park.

Launched in June 2012, this unique sculptural stone fountain was designed byRobin Monotti Architects and Mark Titman.

Made out of an 800kg slab of Cornish granite – the same used in the Diana Memorial Fountain in Hyde Park and Tower Bridge – it is located near the Bomber Command Memorial in Green Park.

It was one of the winners of theinternational drinking fountain competition.

The judges all felt that the Watering Holes design was very ‘Art-led’ and held enormous potential for the Parks.

This fountain is part of the Tiffany Across the Water programme and has been made possible following a generous $1.25 million gift from The Tiffany & Co. Foundation to restore and renew the ornamental and drinking fountains across London’s eight Royal Parks.
