Beacon Plaza and Town Lawn

Galvez Fountain
The Square is the focus of activity with the Town Lawn, Live Oak Plaza and Beacon Plaza, notable for a 35-foot multi-media tower located at the Third Street/RiverCenter axis and clad with programmable digital media panels showing upcoming Baton Rouge events, transit and weather information, local news and televised events. All spaces feature a sound system and WiFi for outdoor internet access.
The Town Lawn is used for relaxation, games and to view movies and other showings projected to a large screen on the Town Lawn Stage. Many other smaller spaces create opportunities for spontaneous meetings and gatherings, as well as individual reflection, lunches and internet activities.
Galvez Plaza features a permanent special event stage/sculpture, the Crest, for large events in the heart of downtown, providing downtown with a first-class outdoor entertainment venue. Whether gathered together for a large parish-wide event or stopping to relax in the middle of a hectic day, citizens of Baton Rouge have an amazing place to be — North Boulevard Town Square, the Heart of Baton Rouge.
