Who would expect a waterfall in the middle of a big city? Houston architects decided to build one in front of the Transco Tower, and in 1985 the fountain and its park was opened. The sculptural fountain was initially named Transco Waterwall, later renamed to Williams Waterwall, and is today known as Gerald D. Hines Waterwall or purely the waterwall as local calls it.
The concept behind the design was a horseshoe of rushing water and to symbolize the 64 stories high tower the fountain is 64 feet tall. The Water wall is Houston’s most photographed site.
