MoreGraceful sea horses spray jets of water into the lagoon that surrounds what is perhaps Chicago's most beloved public piece of art. Philanthropist Kate Buckingham commissioned the fountain in honor of her brother Clarence Buckingham. Its design parallels one of the fountains at the Palace of Versailles near Paris, France. You may, however, recognize it from the introduction to the sitcom “Married with Children.” Renovated over the years, the fountain has beautifully retained its original splendor. At night, it becomes gorgeously illuminated, drawing crowds from May (or earlier, if warm) until mid-October. Less

  What a beautiful fountain! It, unfortunately, was too early in the season for it to be running but we could only imagine what it looks like. Can't wait to go back in summer and see it. More

  Great place to travel to, nice walk, right by the lake, parking wasn't bad, the water/fountain wasn't on, but it's still great to see. More
