City of Hesperia

Civic Plaza

SUMMARY

The City of Hesperia, California is a city of approximately 100,000 residents located in the Mojave Desert about 80 miles northeast of Los Angeles.

The city appointed LPA as the architects for the design of a new civic center for the rapidly growing city. The resulting Hesperia Civic Center is a 27-acre master plan that features a new 50,000-square-foot city hall, a 20,000-square-foot library and a 40,000-square-foot police department. The project also includes a grand civic plaza that serves as the centerpiece of the city’s revitalized downtown. The two-story city hall building houses council chambers, city staff offices and administrative support spaces. Located off the entry lobby, a double-height atrium provides access to public service counters.

Vantage provided design bid and installation support for the Council Chamber audiovisual systems and associated building infrastructure for the project. In addition, we provided three weeks of training on the new technologies for the Council Members, the City Clerk and City staff.
