The Boardwalk is a mixed-use community that fulfills the City of Huntington Beach’s goal to connect several disparate parts of the community surrounding its developing Town Center in a new walkable neighborhood. The 12-acre site replaces a defunct Levitz furniture warehouse and parking lot with 487 market rate and affordable apartments as well as 14,500 square feet of commercial space. TCA worked with Huntington Beach City staff and the newly adopted Beach Edinger Corridors Specific Plan to introduce pedestrian-oriented streets, a public park, and retail plazas to the infill site. The Boardwalk was TCA’s first High-DEF product designed to maximize efficiency, lower construction cost, and separate parking garages as well as courts from the pedestrian-oriented streets. The custom-designed all wood-framed mixed-use buildings supports the City’s regional mobility goals by placing unique urban living near existing office, retail, and public transportation. The Boardwalk is a LEED Silver-certified project.
