         <description><![CDATA[<div>Some believed that the design was inappropriate for the space between the the Washington and Lincoln memorials. They believe: it is too complex for the national mall, disrupts the openness with its pillars, the lighting will alter the dawn and dusk look.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Signs around the fountain state that wading and tossing coins is not allowed.  Many still let their kids play in the fountain and they put their feet in during a hot day.  One says that the ability to wade "pulls people in." While other say that this monument is not a pool for people to dip the feet in.</div>]]></description>
