Artist's Description
An architectural gem, the Kenan Memorial Fountain was erected in 1921 in the middle of the large intersection of Fifth Avenue and Market Street. Wilmington native, William Rand Kenan, Jr., gave the fountain to the city to memorialize his parents, William Rand and Mary Hargrave Kenan. Carrere and Hastings of New York, a respected architectural firm that designed the New York Public Library, drew the plans for the fountain. It was made out of Indiana limestone and cost $43,000. The fountain was sculpted in New York, then dismantled and shipped to Wilmington where it was rebuilt.
