April 10
U.S. National Historic Landmark
(unofficially "Malcom X Park") - Washington, DC
Meridian Hill Park - thirteen-basin cascade fountain.
The fountains are designed with a recirculating water system which, through an elaborate series of pumps, supplies water to two large circular fountains on the upper level, and cascade found on the lower. Each cascade bowl flows to a larger bowl as they descend to the bottom. Water fills one bowl, overflowing into the next, until it reaches the large reflecting pool in the plaza.
