ABOUT THE BUCKINGHAM FOUNTAIN

Buckingham Fountain, a Chicago landmark in the center of Grant Park, is one of the largest fountains in the world and features a center jet that streams water up to 150 feet in the air!

The fountain, a gift from philanthropist Kate Sturges Buckingham, was built in 1927 and designed by Chicago architect Edward Bennet. Bennet, along with French Sculptor Marcel Loyau and engineer Jazques Lambert, modeled the fountain after Latona Basin at Versailles.
