Mulholland Memorial Fountain is a historical landmark located at the intersection of Los Feliz Boulevard and Riverside Drive in Los Angeles, California. Built in 1940, the fountain serves as a tribute to William Mulholland, the renowned civil engineer and Father of L.A.'s water system. Designed by Walter S. Claberg, the memorial was funded through contributions from local schoolchildren and stands on the site where Mulholland once lived and worked as a water laborer.
The dedication of the Mulholland Memorial Fountain took place on August 1, 1940, attracting a large crowd of civic leaders, former associates of Mulholland, and members of the community. The ceremony featured speeches highlighting Mulholland's accomplishments, engineering genius, and visionary leadership in developing the city's water infrastructure. The fountain stands as a lasting tribute to Mulholland's significant contributions to the municipal water system of Los Angeles.
