This post is dedicated to Brattcat of Brattleboro who requested a photo of the entire lion fountain, which I posted a couple of weeks ago. The Lion Fountain is really a memorial plaza dedicated to George Thorndike Angell, a noted animal rights activist and founder of the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (MSPCA) in 1868. As you can see in this photo, when the weather is not cold or rainy, the plaza is a coveted spot in the Financial District to have lunch.
