What happened to the old nozzles? Weren they all brass and bronze?
Many of the nozzles on the original fountain were not made from brass or bronze, but cast iron and steel. The main 1.5″ nozzle and the 16 3/4″ nozzles were brass and have been saved. Some of the manifolds and nozzles for special features on the fountain were also saved so that careful measurements could be taken to ensure that the new water features would look exactly like the original ones.
