| Title | Crown Fountain, assembly in Melbourne, Florida, ca. January 29, 2004 |
| Description | A glass brick panel fabricated and assembled by Circle Redmont Inc., in Melbourne, Florida. The panel is made up of a steel grid with glass bricks in each of the openings. The bricks were adhered to their steel frame with mortar and silicone, which served the dual purpose of disguising the steel frame while waterproofing the bricks. The panels were welded together on site in Chicago to form the tower walls of Crown Fountain. |
