Five Lagunas is the mixed-use redevelopment of the prior Laguna Hills Mall, bringing together the existing communities of Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach, Laguna Canyon and Laguna Woods – “Five Lagunas.” The redevelopment integrates the existing mall, demolishing the southern half and replacing it with an outdoor plaza surrounded by live music and al-fresco dining opportunities, as well as adding almost 1,000 residential apartments and a new public parking structure, creating a new walkable urban village in the heart of South Orange County.
