In 2019, the Gensler architecture firm was retained to work on a Master Plan for the Walk of Fame. The goal was designing a more pleasant, cohesive, and enjoyable experience along the public right-of-way. Based on the design and recommendations contained within the Master Plan, the City will plan for targeted construction projects to improve the area.
“The Walk of Fame Master Plan is the signature project of my ‘HEART of Hollywood’ initiative, and the concept plan is just the first step,” said O’Farrell. “We are working to update the Walk of Fame in a balanced, holistic, cohesive way. As this evolves, we will keep building a sense of consensus and collaboration around various ideas. I encourage Hollywood stakeholders to view the concept plan in its entirety, provide feedback, and join us throughout this process.”.
