The water wheel is located on Williams Street near its intersection with San Marco Avenue. This 9' by 20" welded water wheel was manufactured by the
Water Wheel Factory and replaced an old broken wooden wheel. This water wheel is used for decorative purposes only and serves to attract visitors to the actual Fountain of Youth spring within the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park. The water appears to be recycled from the small pond at its base.
