san jacinto plaza renovation

The traditional sounds of mariachi music will fill the newly renovated San Jacinto Plaza this Mother's Day weekend with the return of the Mariachi Loco Music Festival.

When it was first announced the San Jacinto Plaza was going to get a makeover, many El Pasoans wondered why the city wanted to fix something that wasn't broken.

The Mariachi Loco Music Festival will give El Pasoans the opportunity to celebrate Mother's Day and the re-opening of the renovated San Jacinto Plaza.

The San Jacinto Plaza’s evolution is complete. So what did $6 Million in renovations get us?

Day long 'Fiesta' will celebrate the opening of the new San Jacinto Plaza with live entertainment and lots of free activities.

Attendees will be among the first to walk the 2-acre plaza since it was closed for renovations almost 3 years ago

The day has (finally!) come.

Have you noticed the turf in San Jacinto Plaza has gone from an unsightly brown to an eye-catching green in a short amount of time? It wasn't magic.

Today marks the 98-percent completion date for the San Jacinto Plaza. So how much longer before the historic park is returned to the people?

Lost in the hype of the pope's visit was news that the iconic and newly restored Los Lagartos sculpture had been re-installed in San Jacinto Plaza.

After months of delays, a damaged cable, and so-called 'weld issues', it appears there is finally a proverbial light at the end of the tunnel.

Remember when the Director of Capital Improvement for the city told council back in August the hope was that the San Jacinto Plaza would be ready to open around “the holidays,” and El Paso rejoiced at the possibility that it would be completed in time for the Downtown tree lighting ceremony? Well, stop me again if you’ve heard this before, but it appears there is yet another delay.
