Project Description
- An eight-block mixed-use redevelopment, this thriving family lifestyle destination revitalizes its neighborhood and provides 600,000 sf of stores and restaurants, 338 residences, a 1.6‑acre park, and parking.
- Planned along Brand Boulevard and around a new park, the development includes active street-level shops and restaurants.
- New and existing streets connect the site with its surrounding urban context; sidewalks are wide, with specialty paving, planting, and lighting.
