The park is at the intersection of Glassnell and Chapman. The park is circular with two hatched pathways through the middle. In the middle is a fountain. A plaque on the ground of the park reads:
The Orange Plaza
The Orange Plaza boundaries were established by the first survey of the site of Richland.
