The design for the U.S. Open plaza consists of two raised basins. Each one is the twin of the other, containing the same linear configuration of nozzles which emit smooth, glassy, continually-flowing streams of water. Each row of nozzles acts in unison, capable of rising up to 20 feet. The nozzles may also be turned off completely to reveal a mirror reflective shallow pool of water. The vertical streams can be programmed to create a variety of patterns and choreographed sequences not only within the individual basins but also together, creating play between the two features. During matches the water display can become low and ambient providing a pleasant backdrop for those watching from the plaza. At other times it can become much more active creating a vibrant presentation. The division of the two pools allows for circulation through the feature and the basin edge becomes additional seating for those relaxing in the plaza. At night the feature is brightly lit with white light creating a chandelier-like effect for the center of the plaza.
