East Garrison is a vibrant, compact, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-income, mixed-use, new urban village proposed for a 244-acre parcel of the former Fort Ord, a decommissioned Army base in Monterey County, California. A highly participatory, 18-month-long, public process produced a consensus vision for the project and led to the development of a Specific Plan and a Pattern Book. To create much-needed workforce housing in Monterey County, the plan includes 1,400 residential units and up to 70 accessory units, all affordable by design. In addition, 75,000 sq. ft. of commercial space, 11,000 sq. ft. of institutional uses, 100,000 sq. ft. of artist studios, and approximately 50 acres of open space, parks, and natural areas will contribute multidimensionality, economic vitality and cultural life to the town. The site is surrounded by more than 20,000 acres of permanent open space. An extensive trail system and bicycle network will provide residents with recreational access to this natural habitat. The East Garrison Specific Plan also calls for renovation and adaptive reuse of abandoned, historically significant buildings on the site to create live/work spaces for artists in an Arts District. Drawing on the most respected community patterns, architectural, and landscape precedents in historic towns and settlements throughout the region, the East Garrison Pattern Book will help ensure that this new town is a welcome and desirable addition to Monterey County’s existing communities.
