Jackson Roykirk Plaza, also known as the Jackson Roykirk Memorial Plaza, was a plaza located at the Markridge Industrial Tower. This plaza, identified as a Los Angeles Heritage Site, was near the NASA offices overseeing the Europa Mission. It was named after the early 21st century scientist Jackson Roykirk.
