Glad to hear there is a bit of safety built in. I guess you will hit the drop down before you really drop off! Sorry to say I think this place will become noted for suicide attempts.

What’s the cost in running these fountains?

Hi Karen,
Thank you for your comments, I too, love the idea of seeing through the names! When I looked at a close-up picture, it looks as though there is a infinity pool type affect around the edge.. meaning it looks like its a drop off, but in reality over the edge there is another drop down before it really drops off! 🙂 So this would hopefully deter any crazy kids!

I like the idea of the light shining through the names at night- giving them ‘life’.

However I do see a safety issue being that the waterfall is so high. Hopefully no one will jump in!
