Main Street Garden Park

Bounded by Main Street, Commerce Street, Harwood, and St. Paul, Main Street Garden is a community gathering place for Downtown residents, employees, and visitors. Amenities of the park include a café, City Park Café, and shade structure, splash fountain, playground, urban dog run, garden rooms and concert green. The shade structures contain a public art commission, "SpectraScape" by artist Leni Schwendinger, containing bands of light that change throughout the year and at sunrise/sunset. The park also contains a large neon sign spelling out "P-A-R-K." This sign once hung on a parking garage at the site and was refurbished before re-installation. In the northeast corner of the park a flower garden contains salvaged architectural materials from former commercial structures once located on the site and an interpretive sign details the history of the area. Main Street Garden replaced Pegasus Plaza as the site for major downtown events throughout the year.
