Since 2016, Gretchen Stranzl McCaan of GSM Landscape Architecture, Inc. has been an invaluable project partner. For two semesters, she has utilized the Quake Mosaic as a ‘real world’ assignment to her advanced landscape architecture students at Cal Poly. We made this video to introduce the potential ‘site’ to the students. The area is owned by Zapolski Real Estate and is planned to be developed as part of First Street Napa, an outdoor shopping mall in downtown Napa.
This time, her entire Spring 2020 class travelled to Napa from Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo to see the site and hear about the project in person. In March 2020, Kristina also travelled to Cal Poly to review the final student presentations along with Vin Smith from the City of Napa.
