Farewell, the Avenues Phase II Fountain. You will be missed :(
By danderma | May 13, 2011
May seems to be the month of good byes! First the KDD ice creams of our childhood were gone, next the old frappucinos of Starbux are changed, and now the phase II fountain in the Avenues is gone as well.
I love this fountain! I loved sitting in Casper & Gambini’s and having breakfast there, or sitting in Starbucks and sipping a good frappucino while watching the beautiful colourful fountain display. I love being mesmerised by the sparkling coloured droplets of water dancing up and down, dissolving all my stress and worry with their movement. The last time I was there took the pictures shown above.
I am really sad to see it go but I guess they are paving the entrance to the Avenues Phase III. If only the fountain didn’t have to be destroyed. Such a painful sight :’(

its for the best… they are working on Phase III and I think this will all be covered area but with clear top – so sunlight still gets in and you can enjoy sitting out all year round

Are they rebuilding it after? Why would they put it there if they knew they will be removing it later :s

I don’t know but I truly hope they are going to bring it back. It was lovely! I loved it so much

The fountain is only being replaced and then covered with air cushions for a year round use… The restaurants will come back too… do not despair

That’s good to know! It was too beautiful to permanently destroy!
