The Yards Park, Water Feature

The water feature at the Yards Park is one of the site's highlights.  It's a large pool recirculated by a waterfall that appears to feed the Anacostia River. 



The waterfall spills from a weir that doubles as a fountain. 


Walking behind the fall is lovely -- I can imagine how crowded this space will be in the summer.


 Below, the view of the weir. 


 The fountain is on a timed display -- a few minutes later the jets were quite tall.
