The initiator of the fountain became Agro-Horticultural Society of Western India, the chief architect of the project was made by Norman Shaw. Originally the fountain was named after the then Governor of Bombay Sir Bartley Frère, during which the city was upset very rapidly. But then he got a new name - in honor of the beautiful goddess of flowers and spring Flora, whose figure crowns the whole structure. Originally the fountain was to be installed in the gardens of Victoria, as part of the architectural composition of Plenty, yet the final decision about the location of the fountain was made in favor of the street Dabadhai Naoroji. Replace the Fountain Gate Church - one of the three entrances to the Old City of Fort ruined.
