The fountain no longer works and has a barricade around it and is either being sold off or demolished soon at the time of writing this. The installation is beautiful tho, maybe a bit brutal for some but at one point it would have been a beautiful fountain with steps and views on top, stepping stones to walk on a long the wall on top of the water. It may not be working anymore but my imagination lets me create what it would have been and being there was amazing and just knowing millions of people have passed by it is great to know and feel too. See it before it goes! Maybe they save it, that's my hope, install it somewhere else or let citizens in San fransisco who want it to be able to take pieces with permission from the artist of course.

근사한 분수지만 지금은 폐허처럼 되어 있다. 어떤 아름다운 건축이나 조각도 망가진 사회에서는 힘이 얃해진다.

The Vaillancourt Fountain is far from universally loved—but that’s precisely what makes it compelling public art. It’s raw, interactive, and unapologetically confrontational. Its boldness invites us to question what public spaces—and art within them—should be. That said, aesthetic merit alone can't outweigh clear safety risks and extremely high upkeep costs. If San Francisco integrates the fountain into new park designs with structural reinforcement, restoration, and modernized safety features, it could satisfy both critics and fans.
