Community Conversations During a Pandemic
During a pandemic, as public dialogue about planning projects shifts online, people have been asking us: how can an online process replace a physical one? How can we assure equity and access? Our answer is twofold.

Defend Black Lives.
Here LA, a black-owned business, stands tall and proud with the black community through these times. As a firm that was founded on optimism, positivity, and hope for change, we have been reflecting on how these goals are manifesting in our everyday business practices as well as in our plans and projects.

Slow down!
Did you know that you can turn your streets into 'Slow' streets? Designed for local residents only, slow streets are closed to vehicular traffic and are friendly for people walking and rolling. These local neighborhood streets will be open all day and all night.

A Civic Technology Award for Here LA and LA Metro!
Here LA's Inglewood First/Last Mile Plan has won an Award of Merit for Innovative Use of Technology from the American Planning Association, Los Angeles.

Rethinking the Street
As we all dream of calmer, more positive times, we look for inspiration to cities around the world that are rethinking the way they plan, design, and relate to public space.

Hello, We Are Here (LA)!
We are sending out our best wishes to you, our clients and colleagues as we navigate this strange time together.
