DANA POINT : Local Firm Awarded Median Design Job
- Share via
The Capistrano Bay Park and Recreation District board of directors took the first step toward rehabilitating nearly 2 miles of median strips along Street of the Golden Lantern by awarding the design contract to a Dana Point firm last week.
Hadfield Laymon Landscape Architects was selected from a list of 23 firms seeking the contract. Five finalists made presentations to the board Thursday night.
Hadfield Laymon’s job will be to “come up with a vision” for the medians that run from the Laguna Niguel border to Dana Point Harbor, said Dave Lewis, the park district administrator.
“Golden Lantern is a real showcase street for the city and we want to come up with a theme that has some uniformity,” Lewis said. “Right now, the medians are separated in groups of two or three with no group similar to the rest.”
The district has allocated $300,000 for the median rehabilitation from this year’s budget, although more money may be made available next year, Lewis said.
