English term or phrase: cooling spray area
The phrase comes from here: http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/2014/07/mayor_turner_join...


The context is as follows:

"The collection, which boasts modern architecture and skyline views for 75 percent of the building, offers several amenities including a club room and lounge, a fitness center with a sauna and steam showers, cardio and strength training equipment, a yoga room and a conference room alongside a third-floor outdoor plaza with an open lawn, planting areas, seating, fire pit, sundeck and a cooling spray area .

Each resident will have access to the two guest suites that they can book for visitors for a fee and two parking spaces in an enclosed parking garage."


What does "cooling spray area" mean? thank you for your help.
