MANHATTAN BEACH BENCHES
STRAND ALCOVE BENCH PROGRAM
City of Manhattan Beach, CA

The City of Manhattan Beach asked for the design of a series of benches for their elevated boardwalk that is called the Strand.  After the designs were chosen by a jury, the City published them and looked for donors for each of the benches.  

​

Aside from the aesthetic qualities, the benches had to withstand the rough climatic conditions of the seaside location and be reasonably vandal proof.
