Bryant Park Fountain


Bryant Park Fountain

The Bryant Park Fountain, which is within the park on 6th Avenue between 40th and 41st Street, has been in the news this week as it had a makeover to celebrate Bryan Park’s 30th Anniversary since its restoration in 1992. In fact, 11th May, 2022 was Bryant Park day, and the fountain was all dressed up in flowers for the occasion

The fountain is dedicated to Josephine Shaw Lowell, a social worker who was the first woman to be honored with a major monument in NYC.

This fountain is my favorite in the winters as the extent of it being frozen acts as a Freeze-O-Meter for those of us that choose to be walking around in the City! Here are some pictures to illustrate what I mean –

And all this surrounded by really fun winter sports, including ice skating, bumper cars and curling.
