About Legacy Plaza
Legacy Plaza sits proudly outside the Samuel Riggs IV Alumni Center overlooking SECU Stadium.
Noted in red, two prominent pathways extend from the plaza: the Reeve Reading Garden and Testudo Row, home to one of the seven iconic bronze Testudo statues on campus. This picturesque corner of North Campus celebrates Terps’ proud legacy at the University of Maryland.
4"x8" bricks are placed in the ground on the plaza and along Testudo Row.
8"x8" and 12"x12" pavers are placed throughout the Reeve Reading Garden.
