Olympic Legacy Plaza is a public plaza in The Gateway shopping center in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States.

Description

The plaza opened in 2001, ahead of the 2002 Winter Olympics. It features a large fountain and walls with inscriptions displaying the names of Team 2002 volunteers.[1] Go for the Gold is also installed in the plaza.

Construction of the plaza was partly funded by a "buy a brick" program.[2][3]
