Summary:
Drinking fountain with a bronze bust of Chief Seattle. The bust rests on a rock-like base which sits in the middle of a round basin. Coming out of this center structure, directly in front of the bust, is the drinking fountain mechanism. Around the outer surface of the basin are reeds and cattails done in relief. The fountain basin is supported by a base which reflects the rock-like design of the top structure.
