Lonely Planet review for Lotta’s Fountain

Lotta Crabtree made a killing as San Francisco’s diminutive opera diva, and never forgot the city that paid for her trademark cigars. At the age of 28, the already-wealthy performer commissioned this cast-metal pillar thrice her size with a spigot fountain as a present to the people of San Francisco – a useful gift indeed during the 1906 fire, when it became the sole source of water Downtown.
