How one city streamlined building 2,300+ homes
As the largest residential development in Lake Forest, California, Baker Ranch’s housing project included building 2,379 single- and multi-family homes. Additionally, the project included community swimming pools, park areas, and sports fields, requiring a large number of staff to oversee the development and keep it moving.
