The Park at Irvine Spectrum Center

Wishing to create an apartment community that was “set within a park”, Irvine Company retained Burton Studio as the master landscape architect.  The site plans emphasize a sustainable, ‘community based’ model, which mixes retail, public uses, recreation and apartment services within a plan that surrounds a central park. The recreational amenities are integral to the design concept and include a focal swimming pool, public pavilion, children’s play area, dog park, bocce, horseshoe, barbecue and picnic amenities.  The Park apartment community of 1,450 units has embraced the amenities, creating new opportunities for outdoor movies, markets and art exhibits.
