Construction on Columbia’s new Gateway Plaza is set to begin in January at the southeast intersection of Broadway and Providence Road. The Mayor’s Taskforce for Bicentennial Celebration Planning met Thursday to discuss next steps for the 2021 bicentennial celebration events, including Gateway Plaza. Kathy Becker, executive director for the Downtown Community Improvement District, confirmed the Gateway Plaza will begin construction in January. Becker said the plaza will spell out “Columbia” in 5-feet-tall letters with the ‘o’ being an 8-feet-tall orb. According to previous Missourian reporting, the orb will contain words and statements describing Columbia. The plaza will be five feet higher than the middle of the intersection, said Mike Snyder, Parks and Recreation planning and development superintendent. This was a recent change in the plans, so the plaza would be visible from a longer distance.
