Portola Springs

MLA was retained by The Irvine Company to provide master planning and concept design for this new, 2,600 acre master planned community of 4,500 residences in five distinct villages. Continuing through construction and completed in 2007 are three community parks. Neighborhood One is one of these parks within the community. MLA’s landscape design reflects the Italianate theme of the community in colors, finishes, and plant material. The community clubhouse carries on this theme with stately trellis entrances, a specimen oak tree within a spacious courtyard, lush planting, cabanas, lap pool and spa, outdoor dining and grilling, tot-lot & shade trellis, athletic courts and plenty of outdoor open space for recreation. This very successful neighborhood is appreciated by the community.
