Windmill

The Boothe brothers designed and built the Miniature Windmill when they decided the property needed another unusual landmark. It stands in a circle that had once been part of the drive in front of the Clocktower, where a large cast iron fountain originally stood. To make sure the windmill was no ordinary garden feature, David and Stephen fitted the sail blades with 700 colored Christmas tree lights. On special occasions, the lights could create a moving wave of color across the landmark. The fountain from the original circle was later restored by the Friends of Boothe Park and placed in the Rose Garden.
