The Court Street Fountain was erected in 1885 over an artesian well. It was the original watering site for Montgomery and the surrounding communities. On top of the fountain is Hebe, goddess of youth and cup bearer to the Gods. (Greek Mythology) Her cup is raised welcoming visitors the city of Montgomery.
Behind the Fountain is a view up Dexter Avenue . At the other end of the street is another view of the Capitol Building. Dexter Avenue is also home to Chris' Hot Dogs and the church where Martin Luther King Jr. preached.
