Ever Improving Huntington Beach


The Ever Improving City
Exciting New Projects in Huntington Beach

Huntington Beach is rallying fast with new community enhancing projects currently in development; reflecting an ideal time to join the Huntington Beach community, or to ‘trade up’ your home within the neighborhood.  Acting Manager for the Huntington Beach Planning Department Jane James recently announced several greenlit projects ready for breaking ground this year.  I’ll start with some of the highlights in this initial blog, but there is more to come.  In Huntington Beach, as with most of the rest of the United States, the housing market is suffering from a lack of inventory to meet demand, but here and everywhere else the engine of development is firing up again on all cylinders. 

The Huntington Beach Lofts, formerly known as the Red Oaks project, will be built on the Southeast corner of Gothard and Center streets, behind Golden West College and very close to the Beach Boulevard freeway exit.  The development is a 5-story building with 385 apartments on floors 2-5 and 10,000 square feet of commercial space on the ground level.  Size specifications on the apartments are to be a range of 500-1400 square feet.  Construction is scheduled to start this year, with an estimated completion by 2015.

Regular visitors to Huntington Beach’s famous “Old World” Village will soon see a new neighbor to the west, the proposed Vans skate park which includes an extensive skate bowl, shops and a hospitality area with the rights to hold 15 special events per year.  Nearby Bella Terra mall, and the Costco directly across the street from the planned skate park, make this a new vibrant center of activity for Huntington Beach which will correlate well with the excitement of Main Street, the Huntington Beach Pier, and the beach itself.  I have more to share with you soon as the housing and development recovery spells an especially bright future for the personality-rich Surf City.

The ‘sweet spot’ is now to put into place your Huntington Beach real estate plan, let me help you with the details as your Huntington Beach expert!
