Fountain Place, the majestic 60-foot modernist skyscraper in downtown Dallas, stands proud as the fifth-tallest building in the city. The building is known best for its multi-faceted prism design with various slanted sides causing it to show a different profile from where it is viewed in the city.

Fountain Place gets its name from 172 different fountains at its base.
