On the Grid : Tongva Park
"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." - TRÜF
