9:00 AM: The main fountain on the Muhammad Ali Center plaza has been turned on this morning and is apparently full of soapy foam. Maybe they are cleaning off all the dust it has collected this summer? Several workers have been tinkering with the glass over the last couple weeks and now, presto, we have water.
The fountain had allegedly had problems with the sealant used in the glass columns. Better go check out the fully functioning fountain soon, though, since it is scheduled to be turned off for the winter this month.
