Williams Tower Water Wall551
in Houston, TX 77056about Williams Tower Water Wall:
Take a refreshing break from shopping at the Galleria by walking outside to the Water Wall behind Williams Tower. To call it a fountain would not do it justice. This 3-acre urban greenspace is lined with trees, walkways, and benches, and is anchored by a two-sided, 64-foot-high, concave wall of cascading water. The splash at the bottom of the fountain creates a thunderous roar, and the visual effect of 11,000 gallons per minute spilling down is mesmerizing.
The mist blowing off the water can keep you cool on a hot day, and the grass field is perfect for tossing a ball around or spreading out a blanket for a picnic. Steps and stone archways in front of the Water Wall also make it a popular spot for photo opportunities.

tips:
The Williams Tower visitor parking lot is free on weekends - much closer and easier than parking at the Galleria (unless you're also going to the Galleria, of course).
getting there:
Located at the corner of Post Oak Boulevard and Hidalgo, two blocks south of Westheimer (one block south of the back of the Galleria Shopping Center).
