The Tank Stream Fountain is located in the area outside Circular Quay Railway station. It is a series of fountains featuring a variety of native animals, birds and plants. It is meant as a symbolic connection with the land and indigenous history. It also forms a link between ancient and modern European and Australian history and culture. The water for the fountain comes from the Tank stream which was the original source for the early European settlers. It is a beautiful sight and worth spending some time enjoying it.

There are two Frazer Memorial Fountains. One is located just outside Hyde Park, behind Saint Mary’s Cathedral, corner of St Mary’s Road and College Street. The other, built in the Gothic style, is located inside Hyde Park, near College Street, opposite Sydney Grammar School. Both drinking fountains were installed in the early 1880s, and were donated by a wealthy businessman, philanthropist and politician, by the name of John Frazer. Initially cups were provided for people to use, but in later years the cups were replaced with a bubble fountain, to reflect society’s changing attitudes to health and hygiene. Still in use today, they are worth a stop and a look.

Often local residents of Sydney do not readily appreciate what they have virtually right at their doorstep. Perhaps because we are so used to things like that we just do not notice them! However this fountain is quite stunning. Whenever we come to the city we like to walk by Martin Place and visit this fountain. In Summer especially it can be rather refreshing, particularly in hot weather. The area around, which is the whole of Martin Place is pedestrianised so people can walk freely, except when they have to actually stop and cross the road over to the other side of Martin Place. Sounds weird, but not so much when you are actually there.

Am amazed how little ones are still attracted to the water and the adults enjoy meeting around the unique sculpture.
