Laguna West Area A Master Planned Community, designed by Peter Calthorpe using New Urbanism principles. Including design features such as the following:
- Pedestrian friendly neighborhoods that encourage walking
- A town center
- A nature/riparian zone (the areas along the water
- Houses that have small front yards and driveways that are short or behind the house, use of alleyways
- Streets that are designed to create calm and encourage slow driving by creating narrower streets or putting tree planter boxes on one side of the street, to discourage high-speed thoroughfare-type driving.
- Each house was to have two trees—there would be 20 species of disease and drought-resistant trees, one species to each block. This planting plan was expected eventually to provide a continuous canopy of shade
- The first of about 3,400 planned homes were built in 1991 in the 1,000-acre subdivision
