High Point, North Carolina by Stimmel Associates, P.A.
Through the collaborative effort of civic leaders, designers, and residents, the Fred & Barbara Wilson Plaza in High Point, North Carolina, has become a centerpiece for renewal, proof that thoughtful design can do more than enhance aesthetics - it can restore civic pride.The Fred & Barbara Wilson Plaza at Truist Point acts as a welcoming gateway to the heart of High Point's revitalized downtown. More than just a functional space, it blends hardscape design with local identity and a strong sense of place. With its thoughtful design and positive community impact, the plaza plays a major role in advancing High Point's vision for a lively, inclusive, and economically strong urban center.Part of the High Point Stadium Area Redevelopment Plan, the plaza is located between the stadium and Elm Street and connects major downtown destinations, including the Amtrak station and retail corridors. The layout encourages walking and provides a comfortable route for residents and visitors alike, making it an important link in the growing neighborhood around the stadium.ProcessThis transformation started in March 2016, when the High Point City Council approved a bold plan to breathe new life into underused land downtown. Backed by a $210 million public-private partnership between the City of High Point, Forward High Point, High Point University, and private developers, the redevelopment aimed to bring energy and opportunity to the city core through new housing, businesses, and entertainment. Today, that vision is visible in the connected mix of public spaces, commercial activity, and lively gathering spots that make up the downtown district.
