Plaza San Jacinto por ser el centro de la comunidad de El Paso. Uno puede ver tres edificios históricos situados en la Plaza. En el centro a la izquierda en la parte delantera de Wells Fargo, es el Cortez edificio, construido en 1911 por Henry C. Trost, caracterizada por una mezcla de estilos y detalles decorativos. En el centro-derecha, en el borde norte de la Plaza, se puede ver el edificio Roberts-Banner construido por Trost, que abrió en 1910. Se caracteriza por su estructura de hormigón armado y su forma de U. El edificio Kress junto a él se edificó en 1937 y diseñado por Edward Sibbert. Es un hermoso y colorido edificio. San Jacinto Plaza es también conocida como la Plaza de los Lagartos. Este nombre se refiere al tiempo (1889 - 1965), cuando los lagartos habitan un estanque en el centro de la Plaza. Debido a actos de vandalismo que se tuvo que retirar. Ahora un vidrio escultura de Luis Jiménez recuerda a los caimanes. Muestra cuatro lagartos se puede ver en la imagen.
