This is a rendering of how Lincoln Center will look this summer! WET, a company who has designed fountains for major landmarks all over the world, has begun work on Lincoln Center's fountain to bring new light and splendor to New York's cultural Mecca.

WET's previous projects include fountains for the Ritz-Carlton hotels, the Bellagio, the Mirage Volcano, the Tokyo Dome, and they are currently creating the largest water fountain in the world for the Burj Dubai, the tallest building in Dubai.

WET was cofounded in 1983 by former Disney Imagineer Mark Fuller, who "envisioned a firm that would inspire water's capacity for bringing people together in a shared transcendant experience." His imagination has inspired and delighted millions with over 200 creations in 20 countries.

After seeing The Fountains of Bellagio, Steven Spielberg reportedly commented to Steve Wynn that the Fountains were "the greatest single piece of public entertainment on planet Earth."

We look forward to the exciting new fountain at Lincoln Center!
