WET features

  • Rockefeller Center Prometheus Fountain

    Rockefeller Center Prometheus Fountain
    When Paul Manship's 1934 iconic fountain at Rockefeller Center was in need of a face-lift, WET was commissioned to restore the jets that frame the gold leaf, fire-bearing Prometheus. This was both an opportunity for WET to rehabilitate a New York landmark and to excel in a supporting role for a major work of public art.
  • Al Mussalla Towers

    Al Mussalla Towers
    Located inside the Al Mussalla shopping complex on the main level beneath a semi-curved atrium, the water feature is comprised of three off-centered rings of small water spheres popping from the flush flooring into the air in programmed sequences. The appearance of each sphere is individually timed and controlled to provide a wide range of choreographed sequences, forming circular chases, rotating ellipses, swirling spirals, and myriad other geometric elements.
  • Al Dhiyafa

    Al Dhiyafa
    Three different water presentations, adjacent to the long travelator and an elevator bank, combine to create a kinetic event for visitors to Al Dhiyafa Mall.
  • J.P. McGovern Medical Center

    J.P. McGovern Medical Center
    A series of three water features enlivens one of the premier properties on the Houston Medical Center campus. The property is built around a multi-story parking structure. WET Design was commissioned to envelop in a water feature, both to mitigate the apparent size of the structure and to create a visually exciting and memorable entry to this part of the campus.
  • Campus Martius

    Campus Martius
    At the center of a thumb-shaped public park and traffic island in downtown Detroit, this multi-tiered feature has become both a city icon and sanctuary. After negotiating the racetrack atmosphere of the park's perimeter and arriving at the fountain's edge, one is left with the sound and sight of rushing water, and the din of the city falls away.
  • Columbus Circle

    Columbus Circle
    It is the point at which all distances to and from New York City are officially measured, and where four major traffic arteries converge, but until 2005, Columbus Circle was a desolate roundabout with a few trees and the lonely monument of a very famous Italian explorer.
  • Crown Center Square

    Crown Center Square
    On any given weekend, this feature in downtown Kansas City is populated with children. Drawn like moths to a midnight lamp sale, they flock here to cool off, goof off, and invent an infinite number ways in which to interact with the vertical jets.
