Lake Superior Plaza

Lake Superior Plaza sits at a key intersection in Duluth, overlooking the lake and connecting downtown to the waterfront district. For years, it had fallen out of use and was no longer an inviting space. In 2020, a team of landscape architects embarked on a re-design initiative working with stakeholders to transform this outdoor space. Today, the Plaza has improved circulation, safety and accessibility, shade, and multiple places for visitors to enjoy. The revitalized Plaza is the perfect model of an inclusive public space - blending urban design with natural comforts and is a welcoming gateway into downtown Duluth.
