Golden Gate Park Concourse fountains going with the flow

Back in September, Rec & Park Dept. chief Phil Ginsburg blogged that they would begin repairing and restoring the Golden Gate Park Concourse fountains.

True to his word, repairs kicked off several weeks ago. Much of the inner concourse is now closed off with cyclone fencing and the center fountains have been completely dismantled (but not destroyed!).

The Examiner reports that the project is costing $1.1 million, and that another $100,000 is being requested to complete the job.

A worker at the site told me they’re targeting June to turn the fountains back on, but he wasn’t sure if they would flow 24 hours a day.
