Garden Grove has awarded Urban Pacific Builders LLC of Long Beach the master development rights for Brookhurst Triangle, a $300 million housing, office and retail development planned for central Orange County.
The project, at Brookhurst Street and Garden Grove Boulevard, is set to include about 800 apartments, condominiums and townhomes, and 30,000 square feet of commercial and retail space.
The housing is set to include a pair of 10-story high-rise towers, each holding 60 condos. Also on tap are several three- and four-story loft and townhome projects.
Brookhurst Triangle is set to be developed in several phases during the next several years. The first housing units could be finished by 2009.
The Brookhurst Triangle site consists of seven acres of vacant land, plus eight acres occupied by office buildings, auto dealerships and strip malls.
Garden Grove has been looking to redevelop the area for some time. Urban Pacific has been working on design and development proposals for the site since 2002.
Brookhurst Triangle stands to be the largest mixed-use project of its kind for Urban Pacific.
The company is completing CityPlace Lofts, which includes 72 large live-work loft-style homes in Long Beach, and Pan American Lofts, a 40-unit conversion of a historic building at Third Street and Broadway in downtown Los Angeles.
