The Amazing CityScape Fountain



 Behold, the next biggest Toronto tourist attraction! This fountain design is predicted to attract as many tourists as the CN Tower. I mean, who wouldn't want to visit something as BEAUTIFUL, ARTSY, and MODERN as the CityScape. The fountain's many arcs of different heights, widths, and colours are meant to represent the diversity  in Toronto. Besides representing the diversity of Toronto, the fourteen jets of water spurting from this fountain serve two other purposes.  a) THEY LIGHT UP: As soon as it gets dark, the jets of this amazing fountain light up different colours, as seen in the picture above. This means that the fountain can serve as a 24 hour tourist attraction. As well, the many Torontonians out at night can enjoy the fountain as it lights up Nathan Philips Square. Another great thing about the light up jet streams is that they can be coordinated with the lights of the CN tower, to give Toronto an even more polished look. The colours can also be changed depending on the occasion. For example, green and red at Christmas, or blue and white when the Toronto Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup.  b) Although not huge, the base of the fountain is big enough for young children to play in. Because of the different heights of the arcs, the small children can run and play through the smaller ones, while their parent supervisors can stand under the taller arcs, without getting wet.  If you're still not totally convinced you love the CityScape, you will be after these next few points. The fountain, reaching almost 35m high and 30m wide, is big enough that it can be seen from all over the square and beyond. However, people do not need to crane their necks and stare into the blinding sunlight to see the highest arc of water. The fountain is totally symmetric, which makes it look extremely polished and professional. Also, just think of how jealous other cities such as Montreal, Ottawa, Calgary, and even New York will be of Toronto's new modern fountain. The final amazing feature of this fountain is the coin filtering system it has. Heres how it works; when "lucky" coins are thrown into the fountain, they eventually fall into the deep basin and down a tube with the rest of the water. However, when the rest of the water is cycled through another tube to be shot out again, the coins are filtered out and into an underground storage area, which can be easily accessed through the basement of city hall. The coins can then be put into the cities funds. You'd be surprised how much money gets thrown into a fountain each year. After viewing and reading about the CityScape, theres no way this won't be Toronto's number one choice for a fountain design. The CityScape is just what Toronto needs to brighten up Nathan Philips Square, improve the tourism industry, and make Torontonians happy.
