This open square in Asheville, North Carolina, once held the county's old courthouse, torn down in 1903. Immediately west of Asheville City Hall and the Buncombe County Courthouse, this park was established in 1903 on land donated in 1901 by George W. Pack. The earlier courthouse once occupied this spot; it was demolished and rebuilt a few yards to the east, and the vacated parcel became Pack Square Park in 1903.
The square is bounded by South Spruce Street to the west, College Street to the north, Court Plaza to the east, and Marjorie Street to the south. In 2009 a memorial to Western North Carolina Veterans was installed on the northern side of the square, and a covered stage occupies the eastern side. That same year the park was redesigned under the guidance of Pack Square Conservancy; City–County Plaza became Roger McGuire Green and the mid-park became Reuter Terrace.
Don’t confuse this park with Pack Square or Pack Square Plaza, located around 500 feet (150 m) to the west. The Hayes and Hopson Building overlooks the southwestern corner. Find your bearings: the veterans' memorial to the north, the covered stage and courthouse to the east, the Hayes and Hopson Building at the southwest corner, and South Spruce Street marking the western edge.
