City of Santa Monica Palisades Garden Walk and Town Square

Large Design/Build project for the City of Santa Monica spanning seven-acres titled the Palisades Garden Walk and Town Square. The massive project site is bordered by Ocean Avenue on the west, city hall on the east, Interstate 10 on the north and Olympic Drive on the south. The nearby Town Square is located on the east side of Main Street and is a one-acre site directly in front of the local city hall building.

The visually-stunning electrical components engineered and constructed by Cupertino Electric included the installation of a fully lit pathway extending throughout the park and key vantage points. Deck and handrail lighting completed the visual appeal of the project. In addition to lighting throughout the park’s hardscape and landscape, Cupertino Electric was responsible for the electrical components of the on-site restroom facility and pre-engineered maintenance shed.

Cupertino Electric also installed new 600-amp service, working with local utility Southern California Edison, to feed four panel board locations throughout the park, as well as a lighting control system. To ensure that the fixtures and conduit would be installed efficiently and accurately, Cupertino Electric utilized Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology to eliminate conflicts and maximize installation.
