Streetscape and re:Streets <br />Streets should be dynamic, temporal urban spaces, <br />designed and managed to respond to the changing <br />needs of the community. We are innovators in <br />re -envisioning streets and corridors as places for <br />people, notjust cars, with complete streets and <br />accessible and universal design. Our strategic <br />approach, rooted in a thorough understanding <br />of the social, economic, and cultural context of <br />environments, results in built projects, enhanced <br />places, and tangible revitalization. <br />MIG's "re:Streets" is a multidisciplinary collaboration <br />focused on the planning, design, and construction <br />of streets as a method for improving our built <br />environment. It pushes beyond the current <br />standards to explore the future of streets and <br />what America's roadways would be like if they <br />were designed for living instead ofjust driving. <br />Funded by the National Endowment for the Arts <br />and organized and facilitated by MIG, re:Streets <br />brought together a multidisciplinary group of <br />over 100 professionals from both the public and <br />private sectors to re -envision the American street. <br />Working groups developed design solutions for <br />topics, including mobility and access, events and <br />programming, social gathering, play and recreation, <br />wayfinding, green infrastructure, urban agriculture, <br />commerce, and image and identity. The re:Streets <br />Manual is available as a free digital guide and was <br />distributed to many federal and state transportation <br />agencies, as well as city planning, public works, and <br />public health agencies throughout the country. <br />Graphics/Visual Simulation <br />It is our mission to empower people to make <br />informed decisions about their communities by <br />providing accurate and easy -to -comprehend <br />graphics. We use 3D simulations, models, and <br />renderings to tell a story, knitting together pixels <br />and polygons built from real world data. These <br />graphics assist the planning and design process, <br />allowing us to explore, design, and envision a <br />community alongside its stakeholders and decision - <br />makers. We frequently utilize 3D modeling and <br />other graphics to explore the opportunities and <br />implications of real -world design considerations, <br />such as the "height net," maximum build -out <br />potential, or fire truck and emergency service <br />access. <br />Irrigation Design <br />MIG encourages and promotes water conservation <br />and water supply protection through innovative <br />irrigation design. Our experience includes <br />plan checking, irrigation design standards, and <br />post -construction water efficiency audits. We can <br />also provide special services, such as sub -surface <br />drip irrigation, central control system planning, and <br />reclaimed water. <br />City of Santa Ana I On -Call Landscape Architectural Services 4 <br />
