McMorran Place Plaza is almost ready to host multiple gatherings this summer, and the City of Port Huron is kicking off the season with a grand opening of the space to celebrate with the community.
On Thursday, May 26th at 1 PM, there is a grand opening celebration at McMorran Place Plaza , and the first 250 people to arrive will receive a commemorative coin to remember the event.
Nancy Winzer, Director of Port Huron Parks and Recreation, said, “McMorran Place is the Blue Water Area’s community civic center and one of the most iconic landmarks in our downtown. We’re excited to activate the front plaza area as the center of our vibrant downtown and allow it to serve as the town square area it was originally designed for.”
McMorran Place was built in the 1960’s, and the opening of the plaza marks a new era of excitement with the addition of an outdoor stage, a beer garden, and a splash pad for cooling off on hot summer days.
There will be live concerts at the plaza every weekend throughout the summer along with outdoor fitness classes provided by the Blue Water Area YMCA.
