Boldly standing on the corner of 6th and Garces, the park's sign reads, "Square Stone Park". The name comes from two prominent elements in the park: the rocky, desert landscaping; and the square shaped green space in the center. As the park's location is still in a desert, it was important to ensure that the park wasn't too water dependant. A lot of the landscaping ended up being more rocky in nature with some trees to help provide shade and cool in the desert. While the center of the park was originally going to be treated with the same landscaping, it ended up being large enough to serve as a decent greenspace for more useful purposes.
