A little bit of UAlbany for Pawnee

Does Leslie like the idea? Knope.

Check it out: it looks like a rendering for the UAlbany fountain reconstruction popped up on the most recent episode of Parks and Recreation. (The UAlbany rendering is after the jump.)

The drawing appears as a proposed design for a new park in Pawnee. Understated hijinks ensue.

We're curious about how the show ended up with the rendering. Maybe they did a search for the most epic fountain, ever.

I think the park they visited in Eagleton was actually the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Looks like NY got a lot of love in the last episode.
