This facility in Huntington Beach is an innovative training center that develops the learning and technical skills of both cadets and students by providing an environment that best balance quality enhancements of both building design and landscape. LCI achieved this goal by creating a pedestrian pathway linking to a plaza and gathering nodes to support passive recreation along with biddle and grinder courses for physical training activities. A memorial as a focal point next to the building’s main entry was a key design element. A number of prominent trees were protected through strict construction and management procedures while applicable stormwater techniques such as Modular Wetland Biofiltration systems were considered for the project.
