California State Environmental Planning Award for a Special Service Facility

LRM and Associates directed and designed Walnut Creek Nature Park in Baldwin Park, California. The plan linked the various equestrian and pedestrian trails into a scenic corridor leading to the development of park facilities. Designed as a nature park, these 5 acres of inner city land were landscaped with native plant material indigenous to the Los Angeles basin, San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mountains. It features four different native environments found in Southern California: the mountain forest, the chaparral, the riparian habitat and the oak woodlands.
