As part of a Turn of the River rejuvenation project, the City of Terre Haute and Wabash Valley Art Spaces sought sculptor and project manager, Brad J Goldberg, to create a water feature that would connect downtown with the Wabash River front area through public art. Sitting between the Virgo County Courthouse and Terre Haute City Hall, the piece “creates a conversation between these two buildings.” said Goldberg and acts as a gathering space for people to enjoy picturesque views of the surrounding landscape that overlooks the riverfront. Fountain People provided design services, full engineering, and a complete mechanical package that included the fountain vault, pumps, filtration, controls, sensors, and fittings.
