The fountain is a significant part of the city's charm. It's useful, fun, and therapeutic during the hot summers. It's a place I feel community. Keep it right where it is.

Please do not change the plaza or fountain. It is wonderful the way it is and a great amenity, both for kids and the kidless who just like to see happy neighbors. Such a nice community spot.

Just permanently close the street to cars. Don’t touch the mosaic!

Please keep the water fountain in downtown Silver Spring. The proposed changes will take away what little soul the area has now.

We need to keep the things that make those without spare cash STILL feel welcome and included. Why would you take out the wonderful fountain?? Please keep Silver Spring inclusive and diverse.

Keep downtown Silver Spring the unique diverse place it is now! Any upgrades or changes should prioritize maintaining the current mix of community uses first and foremost. Say No to gentrification!
