Description

This digital image depicts a side view of the fascinating two story fountain in the Curtis Center building in Philadelphia, PA. It is considered one of the finest fountain waterfalls in the city. In this unique fountain a thin film of water flows over multi-colored polished marble until it disappears into a slot at the bottom step for recycling. This lovely fountain sits in the atrium of the building, which is lined with pillars and palm trees and is a gorgeous site for a wedding and other events. The Curtis Center is a wonderful old office building, built in the Beaux Art style between 1911 and 1921. It housed for many years operations for the Ladies Home Journal (said to be considered the most continuously successful magazine the world has ever known) and the Saturday Evening Post. The Curtis Center is located in downtown Philadelphia across from historic Independence Hall.
