Working Together:

Milestones

The Hollywood Park Land Company held four community workshops between April and August 2006. The goal of these meetings was to involve the community in the planning of the future Hollywood park redevelopment. Community outreach for the meetings included newspaper notices and the City of Inglewood distributed over 5,000 flyers to block club captains, senior centers, businesses, civic organizations and other community organizations.

  • First meeting: Exercises were used to identify community goals and preferred architectural and landscape characteristics. As part of the meeting, community members were asked to place green dots on images of spaces and building types they found appealing.
  • Second meeting: This meeting focused on economic realities and market conditions for various types of potential retail and other uses desired by the community.
  • Third meeting: The preliminary framework plan was prepared and presented to the community at the third workshop. Using diagrammatic and interactive exercises, the community responded directly to the proposed concepts.
  • Fourth meeting: The community reviewed a refined concept plan and provided comments and reactions
