Public Spaces
Whenever we consider a new development, we think about health, wellness and a connection to natural open places.
In this neighborhood, our commitment to public space is well-documented. Related Companies provided some $57 million towards the development of Grand Park—a 12-acre urban oasis just steps from our front door.
Across the street, a not-so-secret garden awaits, with a lush lawn and shade trees neatly tucked between The Broad Museum and The Emerson. A neighborhood favorite.
A block in the other direction lies Music Center Plaza, an immaculate public space with a range of dining options, exquisite gardens, an iconic fountain and more views of Gloria Molina Grand Park.
In a town that isn’t known for walkability, The Grand is the central development in a neighborhood that is entirely pedestrian-friendly. One can imagine strolling from the park to an array of museums, restaurants and cafés — all within three square blocks.
And perhaps the ultimate expression of open public space is the plaza at The Grand, the centerpiece of Frank Gehry’s design.
