PARKS

West Adams Heights Park

Prominently located along Normandie Avenue at 1903 Cordova Street just south of the 10 freeway in Los Angeles, this former vacant lot was a community eyesore with overgrown weeds and a buildup of unsightly trash. BergCM served as Construction Managers on this Los Angeles Neighborhood Initiative project which transformed the lot into a community-identifying park that is enjoyed by local residents and welcomes vehicular commuters to this historical neighborhood. The park opened in December 2014 with a well-attended grand opening celebration.
