Barcelona Fountains Water Walks

Sidney Fountain

Passeig Fabra i Puig, 409

Sidney fountain is located in one of the lakes in Nou Barris Central Park. The newly restored Dosrius aqueduct, one of the aqueducts which carried water to the city in the 19th century, runs by this lake which has a water recirculation and purifying system as well as floodlights.

The Nou Barris Central Park project is by architects Carme Fiol and Andreu Arriola and was begun in 1999. It is arranged as a space with no main paths or sign-posted directions, where green elements and water are the main protagonists.

In 2007, the Nou Barris Central Park architectural project was presented the International Urban Landscape Award (IULA), an award given for the redesign of urban spaces based on sustainability and innovation.
