JKA 25 Years: 2010

In 2010, the City of Santa Monica asked JKA to provide before and after visualizations for the Bergamot Station Arts Center site, light rail stop, and surrounds. The goal was to use renderings to facilitate community outreach, education, and support for the long-term introduction of transit-oriented development in this location.

Upon completion, JKA’s phased photo simulations were successfully utilized in public meetings to illustrate incremental redevelopment utilizing combinations of old and new structures, mixed-use development patterns, and environmental design improvements to the introduction of mass transit.
