The small green area, which actually consists only of a large fountain, was designed by landscape architect Lawrence Halprin, opened in 1973 and quickly became known worldwide. With the modern-sculptural concrete sequence of waterfalls Halprin referred to the scenic environment of the Cascade Mountains and the Columbia River, which was named for the mountain range because of its many (now in reservoirs disappeared) cascades.
