Align Real Estate, the SF-based firm that is seeking to redevelop three other Safeway properties in the city into large mixed-use developments, also has a very ambitious plan for the waterfront-adjacent Marina Safeway. Last we heard in mid-November, Align Real Estate was announcing its plan to turn the Mission/Bernal Safeway at 3350 Mission Street into a six-story, 370-unit residential complex, with a new Safeway store in its base.

Most of the shops in the mall will shut down on Oct. 29 when leases expire, according to Westminster City Manager Christine Cordon. The City Council approved a redevelopment plan in 2022 to turn the mall into a mixed-use site for housing, leisure and retail. The 100-acre property, situated on the south side of the 405 Freeway, could soon offer 3,000 housing units and at least 600,000 square feet of upscale retail space.

The proposed development is for more than just a music venue. It's for a nine-story, mixed-use building with 139 residential units, 20% of which will be affordable, and 7,100 square feet of ground floor retail space. In the same intersection, the other three corners are set to be redeveloped as well, with a 96-room hotel (without dedicated parking) also in the works.
