WHAT WE HEARD

STREETS AND OPEN SPACES

The spaces betweenbuildings are where civiclife takes place. They significantly shape how we experience our city.Planned well, they are places to meet, enjoy, play, rest, and many more activities.

The ground floors of the buildings that frame streets and open spaces are important to their success. While shopfrontsand other active usesenliven the public realm,blank walls and backsides diminish the life of a city.

Buildings house the many different uses that make a vibrant neighborhood.They also shape theneighborhood with their presence in the publicrealm. Well-designed architecture that respectsthe human scape makes a neighborhood fell welcoming. They can provide a sense of safety day and night.

In Civic Center, new buildings should enhancethe appearance of City Hall and not overshadow it.

Great neighborhoods have an identity of their own. Whenyou get there, you know that you have arrived. Many things come together to create this identity: the character ofbuildings, materials, plants and trees, the uses, the presence of art, and many more.

The future Civic Center should reflect the Los Angeles we love. It should also have an identity of itsown that reflects its role as the center of government forall Angelenos. In addition, itshould be easy to find your destination.

MEETING #1: IDENTITY AND WAYFINDINGCivic Center District Design Guidelines

MOBILITY AND TECHNOLOGY


Today, the way we con-nect with the city is chang-ing rapidly. There are more and more choices about how to get around. Bike shares, scooters, hoverboards, andothers augment cars, bikes, and transit. At the sametime, the internet allows usto do business at City Hallwithout even going there.Civic Center will accommo-date not only today’s technol-ogies but also tomorrow’s.

How we build neighborhoods also influences our environ-mental footprint. New devel-opment in Civic Center will consider our use of water,energy, and other resources.

APPROACH TO HEIGHT AND MASSING

Buildings should respect City Hall’s prominence. Buildings close to City Hall should be lower than those farther away. Buildings should also recognize the scale of Little Tokyo to the east.
