<br />Standard and McFadden Park, Santa Ana,
<br />California
<br />Todd is providing quality assurance / quality control
<br />for Standard and McFadden Park, a two -acre
<br />neighborhood park in the city of Santa Ana. DEA was
<br />provided a conceptual design of the park by the city
<br />and will work to prepare final plans and construction
<br />administration and community outreach. The
<br />design includes walkways, playground equipment,
<br />a skatepark, half -court basketball, a picnic area, a
<br />shade structure, a rock bioswale, California friendly
<br />plants, drip irrigation, low impact development
<br />drainage and lighting. Other amenities including a
<br />park entrance sign, benches, picnic tables, bike racks,
<br />and drinking fountains will also be provided.
<br />La Pintoresca Park, Pasadena, California
<br />Under the direction of Todd Holmes, DEA provided
<br />landscape architectural services for the renovation
<br />of La Pintoresca Park in the City of Pasadena. This
<br />project will replace existing facilities and add new
<br />amenities to the park. New features include a splash
<br />pad for water play, new lighting for the skate park and
<br />basketball courts, replacement of aged fencing with
<br />new decorative fencing, installation of a new shade
<br />structure over the playground, correcting drainage
<br />problems and court resurfacing. The project also
<br />included community meetings and construction
<br />support.
<br />Robinson Park, Pasadena, California
<br />Todd served as landscape architect for the complete
<br />redesign of Robinson Park, a community park
<br />located in Pasadena. The project was driven by
<br />extensive community engagement and a lengthy
<br />workshop process that resulted in a final design with
<br />strong community support. The project included the
<br />replacement of the existing obsolete community
<br />center with a new multi -purpose recreational facility.
<br />The park was expanded by acquisition of an adjacent
<br />property to allow construction of a new synthetic turf
<br />football and baseball fields, restrooms and parking.
<br />A new playground, picnic area and landscape areas
<br />were also included in the final design.
<br />Washington Park Community House, Pasadena,
<br />California
<br />DEA was a critical part of a multidisciplinary design
<br />team that created plans for a new multipurpose
<br />building in a historic park in the City of Pasadena.
<br />Todd has been engaged in the park design for almost
<br />20 years and was responsible for the development
<br />of the park's master plan, in addition to managing a
<br />major renovation of the park. This project required
<br />extensive community engagement and Todd's
<br />background with the community played a significant
<br />role in the success of the project. The exterior spaces
<br />around the building were designed to be used for
<br />programing that would integrate both interior and
<br />exterior activities. The DEA team developed 3D
<br />graphics to guide the design process and enable the
<br />project stakeholders to visualize the project's features.
<br />This project required extensive collaboration with the
<br />project's architect and civil engineer as the site was
<br />constrained and presented several challenges that
<br />had to be overcome to achieve a successful design.
<br />Sam Hicks Park Monument Perimeter Fencing,
<br />Temecula, California
<br />DEA landscape architects prepared construction
<br />documents for Sam Hicks Monument Park located
<br />in downtown Temecula. The construction documents
<br />denoted placement of HDPE split -rail and tubular
<br />steel fencing in addition to addressing the need to
<br />retrofit the existing planting and irrigation systems.
<br />DEA also prepared a final cost estimate and project
<br />specifications. Todd served as project manager.
