Some fountain pics from the summer.
If you know where the 3rd fountain is, you’re a true Torontonian and probably a scholar.

U of T by the Lash Miller building.

I can't say I recognized the fountain, but the building on the left, as well as the smokestack are pretty recognizable.

This is cool... Google streetview lets you walk right in there.

"Synthetic Eden" is a public art installation created by Canadian artist Stacey Spiegel in 1991, located at One Financial Place at 1 Adelaide Street East in Toronto. The installation features a fountain, metal mesh elements representing Adam's head, and etched glass panels leading into Adelaide Courtyard. The sculpture uses stainless steel, bronze, marble, and glass to create a modern, artificial garden.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but the long-dormant fountain at the MacDonald buildings at Bay and Wellesley has been re-activated as part of the renovation/restoration. I'm not sure I even recall it in operation and I've been walking by there for fifteen years.
