<br />'25:
<br />Chris Giannini is a California
<br />registered award -winning
<br />landscape architect and project
<br />manager with DEA. He has been
<br />involved in landscape architecture
<br />for 25 years responsible for
<br />design, management and
<br />construction observation on
<br />numerous projects, including
<br />design and planning for parks,
<br />sports facilities, streetscapes,
<br />commercial, industrial, retail
<br />facilities, developer housing, and
<br />memorial developments.
<br />Memory Lane Park, Santa Ana,
<br />California
<br />Chris served as project manager
<br />forthe conceptual and final design
<br />of the multiple award -winning
<br />Memory Lane Park and Trailhead
<br />for the City of Santa Ana. With
<br />access to the Santa Ana River
<br />Trail, the pocket park includes
<br />a children's play area, fitness
<br />equipment, nature garden, trails,
<br />bike racks, equestrian hitching
<br />posts, picnic area, site furnishings,
<br />a dry creek bed with pedestrian
<br />bridge, signage, security lighting
<br />and landscaping.
<br />Bryce E. Hanes Park, San
<br />Bernardino, California
<br />As project manager, Chris
<br />developed a conceptual master
<br />plan and construction documents
<br />for the two acre Bryce E. Hanes
<br />Park in San Bernardino. He was
<br />also involved with facilitating
<br />community workshops. The park
<br />is located on a busy corner in
<br />an underserved neighborhood
<br />and will include many of the
<br />elements identified throughout the
<br />community input process, such
<br />as a water `sprayground', a skate
<br />park, soccer field, open space
<br />play, picnic areas, a basketball
<br />court, signage, fitness area, a
<br />restroom, art in public places, and
<br />parking.
<br />Ocotillo Park, Cathedral City,
<br />California
<br />Chris led the landscape
<br />architectural efforts for a proposed
<br />5-acre park in Cathedral City.
<br />Working closely with the city
<br />appointed grant writer, DEA
<br />developed a plan for active
<br />recreation facilities while
<br />considering the incorporation
<br />of sustainable features such as
<br />recycled materials, the use of
<br />decorative rock and decomposed
<br />granite, 'Smart Irrigation'
<br />techniques, and drought tolerant
<br />plant material. The park featured
<br />playground and picnic areas,
<br />walking paths, a ball field with
<br />soccer field overlay, parking,
<br />plaza space and picnic shelters,
<br />in addition to fitness stations, a
<br />restroom, lighting and signage.
<br />Tracks at Brea Segment 4, Brea,
<br />California
<br />Chris assisted with the conceptual
<br />master plan for a one -mile long
<br />multi -modal trail between State
<br />College and Birch Street. The trail
<br />is located within an abandoned rail
<br />corridor and consists of separate
<br />paths for both pedestrians and
<br />bicyclists. The meandering path
<br />is approximately 20' in width,
<br />allowing 10' for each use. This
<br />segment of trail passes under
<br />the SR 57 freeway and hence
<br />provides for unique and creative
<br />solutions incorporating 'Art in
<br />Public Places'— an important
<br />component of any project in Brea.
<br />The corridor will include groves
<br />of trees, meandering areas of
<br />California Poppy and Lupine,
<br />children's play areas, seating and
<br />fitness areas, bike skill zones,
<br />interactive elements, butterfly
<br />gardens, site furnishings, lighting,
<br />and custom entry signage. The
<br />proposed artistic elements will
<br />consider the existing 'poppy'
<br />imagery on the highway retaining
<br />walls.
<br />Gene Autry Trail Park, Palm
<br />Springs, California
<br />As lead landscape architect,
<br />Chris oversaw the landscape
<br />architectural and civil engineering
<br />design efforts for the Gene
<br />Autry Trail Park project. The
<br />project consists of landscape
<br />improvements to the parkways
<br />and median on Gene Autry Trail
<br />north of Vista Chino as well as the
<br />development of a 1.7-acre passive
<br />park. Chris was also involved in
<br />various construction management
<br />tasks.
<br />Ovrom Park, Burbank,
<br />California
<br />As landscape architect and
<br />project manager, Chris worked
<br />on a mixed use site in the city
<br />of Burbank that included a
<br />community center and urban
<br />park. The community center
<br />serves as a center for continuing
<br />education and is a major part
<br />of this site development. This
<br />small urban space and the many
<br />uses it provides was the site's
<br />greatest design challenge. The
<br />park includes a basketball court,
<br />play areas, picnic shelters, picnic
<br />tables, open turf area, restroom
<br />building and an informal, passive,
<br />garden area.
