MACARTHUR MUSEUM OF ARKANSAS MILITARY HISTORY -R
TO: BRIAN MINYARD
FROM: STEPHAN MCATRFR I5ex.-
SUBJECT: MACH RTH UR PARK FOUNTAIN
DATE: 9/7/2006
CC:
The MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History proposes to put a cast aluminum
fountain in a small pond in "ont of the museum, which is located in the historic Arsenal
Budding in MacArthur Park. The pond is located approximately 300 feet north of the
museum, between the museum drive and 9`h St. The pond measures approximately 32 Eeet
in length and I feet in width. The fountain would be placed in the middle- of the frond,
which has a depth of approximaately five Feet.
The proposed fountain is a four tier, cast aluminum fountain measuring 81" m height, 33" in
width and weighs 2-00 pounds. It would have a black-verdi finish. This fountain was
selected because it is felt it would be nzvst appropriate for the time period in which the park
was created (1893). In consultation with the Little Rock Parks Department, it was
determined this fountain would fit the existing space and plumbing.
The museum has no photographs of any fountains which may have existing in the pond,
although local folklore states that a parks curator hand-6shioned a fountain in the 1920s.
