How Tustin Field I was built
Tustin Field was the first housing built on the old Marine base, and the streets say so: Aviator Lane, Flyers Lane, Blue Sky Drive, Windy Lane, Zephyr Run, Nimbus. The City of Tustin describes Tustin Field 1 as the first residential development at Tustin Legacy, 376 homes on the northwest corner of Edinger and Harvard in a deliberate mix of paired homes, detached cluster homes and townhomes, with 78 of them, about a fifth, sold at prices affordable to very low, low and moderate income households.
The Los Angeles Times reported in 2006 that Tustin Field was the first installment of John Laing Homes' Tustin Legacy project on the former Marine base, which had closed in 1999. Wikipedia dates the completion of Tustin Field, both phases, to 2006.
