What’s up with the fountain in City Hall Park? Shouldn’t it be working by now? I just walked through Bowling Green and its fountain is beautiful. —Anonymous

According to the New York City Parks Department, the city has been in the process of turning on all of its fountains. Because the Bowling Green one (below) is a single level, it’s simpler to get going; City Hall’s multi-level fountain should be ready in two weeks or so, depending on the weather, which was unseasonably chilly last week.
