Creating a Multi-use, Outdoor Venue for a Growing Area by City of Henderson
Water Street Plaza is an urban multi-use outdoor venue located in Henderson, Nevada. It was unveiled in May 2021 and designed for community events such as cultural festivals, watch parties, concerts, and other recreation programming. The 125,000-square-foot venue is situated in the heart of Nevada's second-largest city. Since its opening, Water Street Plaza has quickly become the premier arts, entertainment, and cultural destination in Southern Nevada while also playing a vital role in redeveloping Henderson's historic downtown.BackgroundIn 2019, the City of Henderson was faced with a decision regarding the future of its Events Plaza, as it wasn't able to function for current event needs. City leaders made a wise and strategic decision to invest in a new project that would complement their long-term plan for downtown Henderson. To ensure that the community's desires were being addressed, committees were assembled comprised of city staff, neighboring business owners, and Landscape Architects. Three needs emerged: a large-scale event and festival space within the community, an economic driver to attract visitors to downtown Henderson to also patronage businesses, and a hub for cultural programming and public art that is on par with other cities.
