Smaller but nice city junction plaza
"Big Catch Plaza" is a small and somewhat scenic city plaza with a nice statue and park benches for reading and sitting. Near many shops and restaurants including coffee shops and cafes and sit down places along with fast food it is good for a rest break from your day. It is located on a busy junction and along the bus line and has some colorful nice gardening and city landscaping around it. The statue is based upon a story of a beautiful maiden who was turned into a fish. After a kiss from the fisherman, she turns back into a maiden again and the statue was controversial when first commissioned.

Tiny, But Interesting
It's really just a statue on the corner of a block. If you're already headed that way, I'd recommend dropping by to take a look, but it's hardly anything to go out of your way to see. That said, the place is still nice, and we enjoyed poking around it for a few minutes. If you're in the area, check it out.
