Rock Creek Park has four fountains in Washington, DC. Their locations are Chevy Chase Circle, Georgetown Waterfront Park, the Kahlil Gibran Memorial, and Meridian Hill Park. NPS turns off these fountains in the winter to prevent damage and usually turns them on in the spring or summer depending on temperatures and maintenance status.
