The South Bay Parkland Conservancy is sponsoring a public meeting aimed at presenting a vision for multifunctional open space throughout the South Bay, including a waterfront regional park in Redondo Beach.  

This presentation will be led by alumni from the Studio 606, a consortium of faculty and graduate students in the Department of Landscape Architecture at the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.  Studio 606 has been working in coordination with the California State Coastal Conservancy and the South Bay Parkland Conservancy to develop regional recommendations and other materials that can be used to stimulate discussion, guide planning decisions, and generate political will to work towards a more socially and ecologically sustainable South Bay.  The presentation will also show domestic and international precedents that identify strategies, timelines, and creative solutions employed by other communities to improve open space. 

We welcome all interested South Bay residents to view the project recommendations and findings at this meeting.

The Re-envisioning Open Space Project is a collaboration between the 606 Graduate Studio at Cal Poly Pomona and the California State Coastal Conservancy. 

The goal of the project is to develop a Vision Plan that examines the relationship between parks, open space, and quality of life in the South Bay.  For information go to http://southbaywaterfrontproject.blogspot.com or email southbaywaterfrontpark@gmail.com.
