  • In southern California, McWHINNEY worked with the City of Garden Grove and Stonebridge to redevelop a 28-acre site into a vibrant mixed-use center near Disneyland that is home to a Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Inn & Suites and a Homewood Suites. The development also features four high-quality restaurants, creating a great experience and some of the highest occupancy rates and sales in the area.
