What is The Arbor on El Toro?
A name and logo were created for the planned revitalized commercial and shopping district that extends along El Toro Road from the Interstate 5 Freeway to Muirlands Boulevard in this Project Area. The name, “The Arbor on El Toro,” emphasizes the City’s rich agricultural history. The Craftsman’s style was established as the central architectural theme throughout the area for all new development and landscaping improvements. In September 2004, the City began its largest capital improvement project to date to reduce traffic congestion and revitalize this important area of Lake Forest. The El Toro Road Traffic and Landscape Improvement Project features additional traffic lanes, major improvements at intersections, coordinated traffic signals, new landscaping and better access to shopping centers.
