PETERSEN STUDIO

Petersen Studio is leading the design of 25-acre Harbor Park on Chula Vista’s bayfront, the central public-realm catalyst for the revitalization of the surrounding 535-acre Chula Vista Bayfront District, southern California’s last major post-industrial waterfront redevelopment opportunity. The signature park and adjacent $1.2 billion resort convention center will create a series of vibrant and active waterfront destinations that reconnect the City of Chula Vista and the surrounding region to the bay. The signature park encourages interaction with the bay by diversifying shoreline edge experiences with a half-mile waterfront promenade, a destination pier, and a new urban beach for south bay residents. The beach is framed by terraced headlands and activated by an iconic beachfront café with unparalleled views to downtown San Diego’s skyline and the Coronado Bridge. A boat house with watersport rentals invites kayakers, windsurfers and paddleboarders to explore the bay and the adjacent National Wildlife Refuge, one of the largest remaining migratory bird mudflats on the western seaboard. The shoreline revetment and park are being raised to accommodate 2100 sea level rise projections, and flexibly adapt to changes beyond this timeframe.Park amenities will include a large multi-use lawn, a family play area and picnic groves, an interactive fountain, plazas, and public art, set within the context of several acres of colorful 4-season gardens. The 3-acre Bayside Lawn will accommodate the daily recreational needs of visitors while hosting a wide range of performances, events, and festivals that will transform the park into an outstanding regional destination
