Fox Plaza - Ruth Asawa fountain

"Green" building on the Embarcadero - I have never seen a success with plants on buildings. They take a lot of dedication by the building owner to work and mother nature is always working against them - rain, wind and insects.

Fox Plaza - Sources in the building tell me that the Fox Plaza's business lobby will have a remodel starting on Monday. The Ruth Asawa fountain will be ripped out, the travetine stone will be covered with another finish, new lights and the onyx (?) columns will recovered. This will be the last vestiges of the original decor in the common areas of the building. People either hate or love the fountain - I have always been fond of it.
