If you’ve been waiting to tour the luxurious Downtown Santa Barbara apartments at 800 Santa Barbara, there’s no more time to delay: only a few studio and one-bedroom apartments remain.
Last week’s sales also include an impressive flip in Summerland; two-acre vacant lot across from Mount Carmel School; Hope Ranch renovation; Riviera Mediterranean; and it looks like Oprah offloaded some Montecito property.
Plus: Work on the Santa Claus Lane bike path will start soon; 36-unit apartment complex proposed for the Jiffy Lube site on De La Vina; construction imminent of big apartment project at State and Gutierrez; classic Santa Barbara commercial space for lease; new show at Marcia Burtt Gallery; My Pet Ram gallery in the Funk Zone.
And the bar/restaurant on the ground floor will be operated by Good Lion Hospitality.
