The Revson Fountain is now open, with regular water shows

Lincoln Center is still in the midst of renovating its campus, planning to wrap up its modernization of West 65th Street’s buildings, the Lincoln Center Promenade, and the Charles B. Benenson Grove this year.  Renovations include the Revson Fountain, central to the plaza and spectacular when the choreographed water show comes on; the public roof lawn and two new groves to provided shading; and new building facades along 65th Street featuring a transparent design that allows for a “Street of the Arts” in between Lincoln Center’s main campus and Alice Tully Hall.  Click through to check out the progress of the renovations like the new covered pedestrian entrance from Columbus Avenue and the return of Henry Moore’s Reclining Figure sculpture.
