The City Creek Center is truly a destination in downtown Salt Lake City. It is a combination of retail, housing and employment, with many inviting open spaces to visit and enjoy. This fountain is situated in the center of the Richard's Court area, on the west block of City Creek Center. The Transcend fountain delights and entertains with musically choreographed displays using the elements of fire and water, and spewing streams of water upward in playful, airborne patterns. WET Design, from the famed Bellagio fountains in Las Vegas, were the creators of this lively fountain, as well.
The computer-controlled fountains at City Creek took about four years to design and construct. They use underground tanks of compressed air that work like a bottle of champagne. The system also uses sophisticated safety sensors to turn off portions of the fountains if certain environmental conditions are not met.
