OVERVIEW

Looking at the campus as a whole, it is easy to see how the new building fits into its surroundings. Particular attention was paid to the patio areas to ensure that they are not only lovely and inviting to our attendees, but to those in our community as well.

The road along the south line of our property will allow for access to and from Porter Ranch Drive all the way to Corbin Avenue. This road -- along with the traffic signal at Town Center Drive -- should greatly enhance the ingress and egress to our campus.

NEW BUILDING

This view of the new sanctuary building is what one will see while driving down Rinaldi Street or when visiting the shopping center across the street.

It is designed to complement our current buildings while providing a contemporary, updated look.

PRAYER TOWER

This beautiful prayer tower will be a central focus of our new building and a place where people can pray for the San Fernando Valley. At nearly 60 feet high, it provides a 360-degree view and a unique perspective to survey our community. The tower will be an ideal location to experience solitude, allowing you to pray for the many of people around us who have yet to discover the love of Christ.

SANCTUARY

The sanctuary will seat 3,500 people in both stadium and traditional seating.

As you can see, the seats are laid out in a fan shape to allow for excellent viewing from every seat in the house, while maintaining an intimate feel in the room.

We will utilize some of the best technology available today. This will allow us to continue to produce the high quality services, events and productions for which we are known.

LOBBY

As you can see, the lobby is large and spacious with lots of light. The large windows face north and will look onto Rinaldi Street and the Town Center shopping plaza.

The lobby will provide comfortable seating as well as information and resource areas for the many activities and events that take place here at Shepherd. This bright and airy space will be ideal to meet and greet folks as they come to church.

Design
Pre-Construction Phases

We have completed the Design Phase for our development and have acquired the necessary land, easements and leases needed to continue. The drawings and engineering plans have been completed giving us approval for our Master Site Plan through the City of Los Angeles.

Phase I (completed)

Phase I was completed in June, 2011 and included the construction of our parking deck, additional surface parking, and new “back roads” from Corbin Avenue and Porter Ranch Drive. Additionally, phase 1 allowed for improvements to be made to a parcel of land adjacent to our present campus, including the traffic signal at Town Center Drive and Rinaldi Street -– a huge asset for access and traffic mitigation.

Phase II

In Phase II of our development, we will construct the new 3,500 seat sanctuary, prayer tower, office spaces, ticket office, surrounding patios and walkways. In addition, we will address the remodel of our current building to accommodate an expanded children’s program, new classrooms, chapel, and much needed offices.
