HP Presbyterian Church Getting New Fountain
The city of University Park recently approved allowing Highland Park Presbyterian Church to build a new fountain within the existing Rhodus Garden courtyard on the church campus.
The fountain will be 18 feet in total width, about 4 feet tall, and about 6 feet from front to back, and will likely be made of cast stone, University Park Community Development Director Patrick Baugh said.
“The fountain is in the courtyard and cannot be seen from any public way around the entire campus,” Baugh said. “It can only be seen by standing in the courtyard itself.”
“I’ve been in the courtyard; it’s lovely, and I think the plans are beautiful,” councilwoman Liz Farley added.
