Project Description
Laguna Niguel
Laguna Niguel was one of California’s first master-planned communities. As a predominantly residential city, Laguna Niguel serves as a bedroom community for the job centers of northern and central Orange County. In contrast to a traditional bedroom community, Niguel was designed so that “families should have most of their economic needs and their social and cultural interests met by facilities within the community” The plan was also notable for its emphasis on parks and open space – comprising nearly a third of the land.
