The Beautiful Fountain in Lincoln Park Jesey City
When The Lincoln Park Fountain was completed in 1911 it came with a 10-year guarantee, but its sculptor, Pierre J. Cheron, added "by that time the concrete will be so hard owing to the water constantly flowing over it, that it will be absolutely permanent." Later neglected, with a pool alternatively filled then emptied because it was once thought dangerously deep, at 42", for children. Now the 53 ft. fountain is again in full flower.
