Summary

Description
English: KNOW YOUR CITY, NO. 19 -- Always spouting off, that's this thing. No fountain of youth, it's very colorful. It's on a four-acre site where the man to whom it is dedicated lived as a boy. Bet you didn't know that! Can you guess it?


ANSWER: Naturally, it’s the city's most colorful fountain, the memorial to William Mulholland, "father" of Los Angeles' water supply. Located at Riverside Drive and Los Feliz Blvd., the fountain's changing sprays are dramatically illuminated with varying colored lights. It was dedicated on 1940. And, yes as a boy, Mulholland lived in a ramshackle farm on this very spot.
