The Scioto Mile Fountain will be open by the end of the month!
The fountain, located at Bicentennial Park right on the Scioto Mile, has been closed since May 2023 when it began a $15 million renovation and redesign
Per NBC4, some of the upgrades include:
• Enhancements to the stainless steel halo structures’ fog nozzles and super shooters, jets that can shoot water 100 feet into the air, adding visual and interactive appeal, including a system that will engage and interact with visitors.
• A sprite area with 344 fountain sprites lit by self-contained LED lights.
• Increased seating and shaded areas and space for food trucks and carts, offering reprieve and refreshment to Downtown visitors.
• Sculptural light elements with vibrant, constantly changing colors featuring dynamic light shows in the cold-weather season, making the Scioto Mile Fountain a year-round destination.
We have missed having this and seeing everyone play in it, so we are very excited to see this new version of the fountain!
