City of Pasadena Invites Community to Final Design Showcase for Sierra Madre Median Enhancement Project

The City of Pasadena invites community members to attend the final outreach and engagement event for the Sierra Madre Median Enhancement Project, a collaborative effort to transform select segments of the Sierra Madre Boulevard medians into greener, more sustainable spaces.

Residents are encouraged to join City staff on Tuesday, September 23, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Victory Park Recreation Center Gymnasium (2575 Paloma Street) for an opportunity to:

  • Attend a presentation at 6:30 p.m. highlighting the project's final design and next steps for implementation.
  • Explore a showcase featuring the selected plant palette, landscape features, and stormwater enhancements that will beautify and improve the medians while supporting habitat creation and water quality.
  • Connect with staff and project partners to learn how the project aligns with Pasadena's commitment to sustainability, urban greening, and community-centered design.

The Sierra Madre Median Enhancement Project focuses on targeted sections of the boulevard medians, rather than all medians included in the original master planning process. The design incorporates stormwater improvements, greening strategies, and low-impact landscaping to create an inviting corridor that enhances both ecological and community value.

Led by the City's Department of Public Works, this project was developed with support from Pasadena residents and stakeholders through a series of community workshops and surveys. The final event marks the culmination of this collaborative effort to shape the future of Sierra Madre Boulevard.
