The Friends of the Public Garden invite you to join them on September 17 to celebrate the Child Fountain Restoration Project, at the Arlington Street Gate to the Public Garden. Remarks begin at 11:30 am. The Child Fountain Restoration Project – and the accompanying landscape enhancements at the Arlington Street entrance – will ensure that the Public Garden is more accessible and welcoming to visitors. The leveled plaza and shallower basin around each fountain bring visitors closer to these works of art. A redesign of the granite surrounds enhances the fountains’ presence in the park while additional benches invite the public to sit and enjoy the space. New lighting has been added to highlight the sculptures and to add to the safety of the Garden.
