Manhattan Village Reaches Key Milestone in $180M Redevelopment

Another key milestone was reached in the $180-million redevelopment of Manhattan Village, a 44-acre, 573,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor mixed-use dining and retail experience located in Manhattan Beach, CA. Interior renovations of the existing center have been completed as part of of a 53,300-square-foot expansion of curated open-air dining and retail space, as well as a fully-renovated enclosed shopping center.

JLL’s Don Ziss says, “Reaching this milestone is a big step in realizing our goal of creating the premier dining and shopping experience for residents of Manhattan Beach and surrounding communities.”

So far, improvements include all new flooring, skylights and an expanded clerestory. There’s also a new center court concierge, and new touch screen directories to improve the shopper experience, as well as new luxe seating areas, upgraded technology with work/charging stations, a new center court fountain and statement lighting.

The phased development plan is slated for full completion in 2020.
