- Stoneview Nature Center is a county-operated garden and educational facility in Culver City, California along the Park to Playa Trail. The nature center building and gardens are part of a “transformation of a five-acre brownfield site in the Baldwin Hills neighborhood of Culver City, California.” The main building, designed by Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects, is 4,000 square feet (370 m2) and features community space, a meeting/classroom, an outdoor kitchen, and bathrooms. The park, which has a focus on native California and edible plantings, includes a raised-bed Mediterranean demonstration garden, a native grass meadow, and installations by the contemporary art collective Fallen Fruit. The edible landscaping includes oranges, avocados, figs, grapes, lemons, blackberries, and blueberries, and less-familiar California native edibles including lemonade berry, coffee berry and prickly pear. Fitness equipment and workout classes are offered at the park. Stoneview is a key segment of the 13 mi (21 km) Park to Playa Trail; “good views of L.A. are guaranteed on the dirt-and-paved track from Baldwin Hills to Playa del Rey.” The center operates an apiary in partnership with as well as a furnishing an elaborate hotel for native bee, both as part of a public outreach campaign on the importance of pollinating insects. Stoneview was recommended by local public-radio station KCRW as an outdoor refuge during the pandemic. The land was previously a primary school campus from 1956 to 2010, and was acquired by the Baldwin Hills Regional Conservation Authority in 2011. (en)
