Fountain Identification

Does anyone know what fountain Ophelia drowns in? I've found it identified in several places as the RCA Building fountain (now the GE Building), but there is no Promethius. The only location credit given in the film is the Guggenheim Museum, but that is not the Guggenheim Fountain. I've searched the web for New York fountains and cannot find the one from the film.....Help!!!

It was in front of the Deutsche bank building that stood at 130 Liberty Street. Unfortunately, the fountain was destroyed in the 9/11 attacks. I just visited NYC for the first time ever and lamented the fact that I couldn't go visit the fountain. I've been obsessed with it ever since I first saw the movie 10 years ago.
