Atwater Park in Springfield has gotten a facelift. Dozens of city residents were joined by Mayor
Dominic Sarno and Congressman Richard Neal for the reopening today of the park's fountain. Members
of the Atwater Park Civic Association had worked towards restoring the fountain for years.
The project finally came together by funding of grants, donations and help from the city.
We spoke with a woman who was excited to see this new fountain change her neighborhood
I'm excited. I feel like it's going to shift some energy in the neighborhood, get people out
hopefully and we're really looking forward to like seeing it kind of spread down to other
parts of the neighborhood and sort of get some energy flowing. Construction of the
fountain began in the fall and wrapped up early this summer.
