The Plaza has been undergoing construction to create a new entranceway at the corner of MacArthur Place and East MacArthur Boulevard, which would allow more pedestrian traffic into the center. “We hope that this new entrance makes it easier for people who live and work near MacArthur Plaza to come and enjoy what we offer,” said David Fried, owner. “We hope that the community sees this entranceway as an invitation to come to the Plaza and join in our events, dine in our restaurants, and recognize us as part of the community.”
