Harris Bank Fountain..
By Russell Secrest../1935
The fountain sculpture was commissioned by Harris Bank for its plaza at Monroe and LaSalle streets.
Seven jets of water splash from and through the seven blue-green bronze pedestrals that make up for this fountain sculpture.. The interconnected petallike arms extend 6 1/2 feet in height and the water flows into a massive granite basin that is 22 feet in diameter..
