Buckingham FountainBuckingham Fountain is one of the largest in the world. Situated in Chicago's Grant Park, the fountain, which was designed by Jacques Lambert and modeled after Latona Fountain at Versailles, was donated to the city by Kate Buckingham in memory of her brother, Clarence Buckingham. Buckingham Fountain was dedicated on August 26, 1927. It was the official starting point for the classic US highway Route 66 that ran to Los Angeles. The fountain runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day from 11:30 to 21:00 with a light and water display from 21:00 to 22:00. The fountain contains 1.5 million US gallons (5,700 L) of water. During a display, more than 14,000 US gallons per minute (880 L/s) is pushed through the 133 jets. The opening credits of the Fox Network sitcom Married... with Children, still seen in syndication, include a shot of Buckingham Fountain.
