Description
Popp Fountain was built in 1937 in City Park, New Orleans, Louisiana. The City Park website provides the following description:
This magnificent, 60-foot-wide fountain contains underwater lighting and a dramatic 30-foot spray of water from a cast bronze sculpture of leaping dolphins designed by artist Enrique Alferez. The fountain recently underwent a significant restoration. An upper and lower promenade surround the fountain, which is bordered by 26 Corinthian columns draped in wisteria and walkways landscaped with native flora.
