Current Status
4th Street Santa Monica is currently in predevelopment and waiting for financial commitments. The project is a mixed-use, mixed-income community in the heart of Downtown Santa Monica.
Project Overview
The vision for 1318 4th St. is to create a mixed-use, mixed- income community in the heart of Downtown Santa Monica just one block from the world famous Third Street Promenade. The development will provide affordable homes to low-income families and individuals already living or working in Santa Monica as well as 50 individuals that are currently homeless in Santa Monica. The mix of unit types will serve the wide-ranging needs of Santa Monica’s low-income residents, and the property will include a community room for gatherings and services programming. To create and foster a cohesive, stable community, at least three full time services staff will offer supportive services to all residents and host community events and meetings.
The centerpiece of the ground floor will be a 19,600-square retail space that will help activate 4ht Street in both daytime and evening hours which will be supported with ample subterranean parking. The property will also provide 1,630 sf of community benefit space which may be offered to a local nonprofit, the Santa Monica Police Department, or an alternative needed use in the downtown area.
