The Tootie McGregor Fountain was built in 1913 to honor the memory of one of Fort Myers early pioneers.

When originally built, the fountain was located at the intersection Cleveland Avenue, Anderson Avenue, McGregor Boulevard, Main and Carson Street. It was moved to the Fort Myers Country Club in the 1950’s. The designer is unknown

Update Nettle Creek Aqueduct, Morris, Illinois

     The I M  Canal Aqueduct over Nettle Creek in Morris, Illinois collapsed in 2013.    Little has been done to repair the structure since that time.  It is estimated that the cost to repair the aqueduct will cost 5 million dollars.  In November of 2018, $250,000 was allocated for the clean up.

     Because of the issue with the aqueduct, Gebhardt Park has suffered and the canal running through it has become overgrown with weeds.
