$750K California Rivers & Mountains Conservancy Award

Congratulations to our California client on securing a $750,000 grant from the California Rivers & Mountains Conservancy (Prop 1) for park  construction!

This transformative funding will breathe new life into a currently vacant, inaccessible parcel, turning it into a vibrant public space rooted in ecological stewardship and community connection.

The future park will feature:

- Native trees and plantings

- Pervious walking paths

- Interpretive elements

- Thoughtful amenities for all ages

It’s a privilege to back projects that blend sustainability, storytelling, and smart design. Here’s to transforming overlooked spaces into places of purpose.
