Santa Monica

Known as an historic, beachside resort town, SaMo has been home to surf and skate culture, healthy living and some of the most progressive attitudes in CA. Today, it’s been reborn as an important tech and cultural hub dubbed “Silicon Beach” where art, entertainment, fashion, food, old and new fuse into a beachy-meets-metropolitan vibe.

This 6-acre urban oasis was just a parking lot a few years ago and is now a cool park for downtown SaMo. It’s named after the Tongva People, the original locals of the region, and is inspired by SoCal’s arroyo landscapes. James Corner Field Operations (developers of the High Line in NYC) have done an amazing job of creating a native, sustainable and peaceful space with eyes toward the future. Get a perfect ocean view from the funky "nest" overlooks. They’ve literally un-paved a parking lot and put up a paradise.
