The Archibald Fountain is an art deco style fountain in Hyde Park, near College Street, designed by French artist Francois Sicard and unveiled on 14 March 1932. The fountain is named after J.F. Archibald, owner and editor of The Bulletin, a newspaper which later became a magazine that encouraged writers to write about Australia.
Lovely fountain, are people allowed to paddle in the water over Summer? It would be popular here.
ReplyDeleteOh, no. Jumping into the fountain would be frowned upon and is probably illegal..There is a large open fountain at Darling Harbour where people can do that.
