Diving into the details on the project page, it looks like the fountain is gone but so is a "middle section of that long planter located to the east of the fountain. Hadn’t seen that before so wanted to share.

Wow. I am somewhat surprised as to why this was done? (don’t see an explanation)
I guess we are to assume that it was time and was needed?
Or was requested or pushed by the nearby businesses?
IMO, DTR is in sore need of a real fountain…public or otherwise!

I heard a rumor on Facebook that fountains cause Covid19.

Nothing but plaza open space. Look up above to dtraleigh’s post (just 5 up from this one) and you can see what it will look like.

Couldn’t benches or something be put in for the restaurant pavilions?

If it rains really quickly now, it will a fountain…or at least a reflecting pool.

It seems like this will open up the plaza a bit and perhaps help some of those storefronts along the back. I know when I’m there for events I never think of going back to those places, perhaps this will help bring them to the forefront of the space. I’m clearly looking for positives when they’re removing something that was once deemed a “feature.”

Man, I thought the renovations was to spruce it up a bit and remove the fountain but it looks like the plaza is getting a larger refresh.

This is like getting underwear for Christmas. Necessary, but no fun.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned on the restaurant thread, but Gigi’s pizza is closing and apparently another restaurant similar to Happy & Hale (veggie, healthy concept) is going in that space.
Also: Crema, my favorite lunch spot, is back open now

I noticed those things were pretty messed up looking. Was it just traffic, the events on the plaza or the adjacent construction that did them in?
