North Beach Trail | Santa Monica, CA Client: City of Santa Monica Partners: KPFF, Alta Design & Planning Coastal Renaissance One of the most-filmed locations in the U.S., the Santa Monica coast is seared into American cultural memory-but today, many of its iconic shores are stressed and faltering. After decades designing some of California's most beloved public landscapes, from Golden Gate National Recreation Area to Griffith Park, SWA's redesign of the Santa Monica beachfront revives three miles of crumbling asphalt with a distinctive new experience. Safer and more legible, North Beach Trail is punctuated with playful interpretive features and paving that celebrates native species from Catalina Mariposa Lilies to Pacific Green Turtles, elevating functional infrastructure to an artful and regionally significant waterfront that captures the city's spirit.
