Potomac Yard
Granite Modular Interactive Fountain
Kusser FountainWorks provided two water features at the Eclipse on Center Park in the National Gateway at Potomac Yard, Arlington VA, a luxury high-rise, mixed-use community comprised of 465 upscale residences. The Sculpture fountain is located in the center of the courtyard of the development. It features a granite monolith with water flowing out of the top and over its chisel cut surfaces into a solid granite basin. Kusser constructed the Interactive fountain on a suspended deck made from granite pavers. It is shaped like a lunar eclipse and contains (25) individually programmable jets and (9) perimeter nozzles arcing inward toward the center of the fountain.
