September 15, 2021: The second Johns Creek Gateway Marker is now in place beside State Bridge Road, just west of the river.

This sculpture by artist William Massey is identical to the one located at the corner of State Bridge and Kimball Bridge roads; however, the site permitted the marker to be installed on a raised base. Components of the sculpture showcase the Chattahoochee River, the original 6 steel truss bridges in the City, and 20 graphics that represent this area from the past to the present.

Lighting is on its way, and a sign defining each icon and the significance of the sculpture will be mounted on the concrete base soon.

The gateway marker, commissioned by the Johns Creek CVB, was funded by the portion of hotel/motel tax (not by residents' property tax) that can only fund projects meeting specific tourism guidelines.

Keep up with the latest news of the Legacy Center Project

Facebook and Instagram

The Legacy Center of Johns Creek will be a multi-use, multi-discipline arts center designed to be used not only as a comprehensive cultural arts venue, but a place for community, social, and business events.  It is envisioned to be a strong economic driver for both the arts and the greater community of Johns Creek.  Many community and government leaders consider the Legacy Center to be a top priority and potential “anchor” in the development of a city center for Johns Creek.

As a hub of activity, the Legacy Center will support community gatherings, social and business events, plus a wide range of local and touring concerts and shows. But, at its heart, it will be a place for creating, exhibiting, rehearsing, performing and teaching the arts and culture by and for the citizens of Johns Creek.
