About the Plot
Since June 2012, The Plot has provided downtowners and visitors with an attractive temporary space awaiting future development. The original location of The Plot was the corner of Granby Street and Main Street and it was created with the help of hundreds of volunteers that installed donated cobblestones, planted flowers, and created signs to fashion the common space complete with an amphitheater and seating areas.
In May 2014, with the onset of construction for the Hilton Hotel and Conference Center, another opportunity was created to transform another site into an urban park for the community and The Plot was relocated to its new location in the downtown Arts District.
