In July 2020, the landscape architecture firm transformed Laguna Beach’s famous Forest Avenue in the heart of the city’s downtown into a pedestrian plaza with outdoor dining, shopping and safe gathering spaces; a step above simple street closures to improve social distancing.

Through 10 illustrated sections, the guidebook outlines steps businesses can take to move outdoors, and provide exciting pedestrian only experiences that strengthen public wellbeing and social bonds.
