DESCRIPTION:
Garbini & Garbini provided landscape architectural design for the courtyards and streetscapes of this five story high-end residential project. The project is a great example of urban infill and includes wide pedestrian parkways within a short walking distance of sports and entertainment venues, dining, and mass transit.
On-site landscape areas include an entry plaza, several courtyards with fountains and lush landscaping, and a rooftop terrace with heated pool, innovative pedestal paver system, and sweeping views of the city. Additional features include a double-sided water and fire feature, accent paving, and an ADA accessible dining island and bar with stainless steel barbecues and granite countertops.
CHALLENGES:
The ownership of the project changed during the design phase and the design was updated per the new project goals. Close coordination with the architect was provided to ensure the materials of the landscape would complement the colors and patterns of the architecture. Due to the close proximity to Disneyland, comprehensive parkway design standards were already in place for the streetscape design.
