Photos chronicals the renovation process for Hart Plaza's Dodge Fountain. The historic fountain hasn't operated fully in decades. Thanks to American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding, the Dodge Fountain, a staple in the City of Detroit, will run again spring 2024!
Bringing back Detroit's Dodge Fountain has been a labor of love for the Detroit Construction & Demolition Department, and the Capital Planning team over this project.

▶️ more than 100 light fixtures
▶️ 130 spray nozzles
▶️ and 350 linear feet of piping

The Hakone Open-Air Museum in Hakone was Japan's first open-air museum. The museum opened in 1969 and contains pieces of art by many of the world's most famous artists. They boast a surprisingly large collection of Picasso pieces. The HOAM is quite large (over 70,000 square meters) and has beautiful mountain scenery.
