Yes, it is gone. But what remains is rather nice.
Taking center stage in the square is Frédéric Mistral. The French writer won the 1904 Nobel Prize for literature. The hat makes him look a little like Colonel Sanders of fried chicken fame (click on the photo to enlarge it), but it's nice to salute a writer this way.
The area is filled with cafes, so it's a natural meeting point for the people of Arles.
