St. George

St. George's newly finished City Hall Plaza, just off Main Street, now averages more than 4,000 visitors a day on weekends, Cedar City News reported in an episode of its "What's Going There" series on local developments. [1]

The plaza has a pergola, fire pits, stone seating, hanging chairs and picnic tables. Art includes "Just One Beautiful Thing," a sculpture by local artist Jerry Anderson honoring pioneer families, and "Together," a steel piece by South Jordan artist Nate Brimhall. [1]

A Japanese-inspired zen garden on the northwest corner honors St. George's sister city of Ibigawa, Japan. The outlet said a pair of metal slides off the nearby parking structure has been popular with children. [1]
