At a ceremony on December 12, 2012, Benenson Plaza was dedicated as the third phase of the Newcomb-McAlister Unified Green master plan, following McAlister Place and the Gorson Gathering Gardens at the LBC Quad. The beautification project was made possible with a generous donation by the Benenson Family who previously supported the McAlister Place project as well as the Gibson Circle Monument sign and pylon entries.

This implementation of Phase II of the Newcomb McAlister Unified Green Master Plan brought enhancements to the central green of Tulane's Middle campus by providing improved lighting, landscaping, seating and gathering areas along three sides of the LBC Quad. Through the development of clusters of seating areas within the newly landscaped borders, students can take a moment to study, have an impromptu get-together, or to watch the activities on the quad. While the addition of benches and bicycle racks provides needed amenities to this active core, plantings, selected to offer seasonal color throughout the year, provides visual interest and animates the quad's perimeter.
