Agreed, Dan O. Also, traffic at that corner is already a nightmare; where are all these residents going to park? And where’s all the water going to come from?
On another note: I’m pretty sure that 22 W Mission did a short stint as a coffee shop in the 90’s.
Oh good grief, another 4-story 30 apartment building proposed?? I work across from the one at Ortega & Anacapa and every person I've met that lives there moved here from LA or points further. They are all nice people, I'm sure they are grateful these apartments were built.
Ha! That was a tough one! That’s the third one I’ve got on that block.

Afraid not....
El Paseo by Wine Cask?
No, but thanks for guessing!
The Courthouse
Owners are actually a charitable trust controlled by the Sperling family who must have lost interest in local once their children grew
All you need to do is pull up google maps. The location is no surprise lmao. The golf course has good security. Every home in town is worth millions. They won’t be targeted more than anyone else lol.
Everyone on here needs to chill. This home is looking beautiful and ecologically friendly too !
The cute oceanfront cottage on Edgewater Way had a price bump yesterday to $4.5M.
The second Instagram account is correct and displays the newly remodeled kitchen and upgraded patio area. https://www.instagram.com/dutchgardensb/
The Dutch Garden is in the unincorporated county not the city.
The Garden Street Academy was there, although I don't know for how long, and it appears to be the owner (via San Roque School Charitable Trust).
This is one reason why I moved from SB some years ago. Poor planning, and parking should always be included in any housing project. Remember there are people who rely on cars, those who are handicapped, etc. Shame on this city for their continued poor approval process.
Re: The former St Anthony's property, up for sale. Who currently owns the property? What has it been used for over the last ten years or so? Or has it been vacant except for some concerts in the (former?) chapel?
Congratulations to Ramon and Corazon Cocina! His food has always been delicious, innovative and wildly addictive. ❤️
You clearly don’ know how to use the word ‘no’. Possibly take an English course before posting to social media.
Thank you.
It's in an area much friendlier to walking, biking, and transit. Shopping is literally next door. This enables households to have fewer cars so 2 cars per unit is not necessarily a requirement. I'd still tend to think including one parking space on-site per unit makes sense since this is America and it's hard for a household to go completely car-free.
The tenants may also be able to rent a long term spot in one of the many parking lots or structures downtown. This could be a win for parking lot utilization since if a tenant commutes to work during the day the spot is free for people to come downtown, but many of these spots go to waste empty at night. Carshare services (like Zipcar) can also work well for people who don't use a car every day, I'm not sure if these are big in Santa Barbara.
Requiring extensive parking in every new development is one contributor to the very sprawl that makes cars so necessary.
33 units at 425 Garden and NO parking spaces? Someone needs to do a parking survey. Residents will be walking blocks to their cars. 418 Milpas, 90 units and 52 parking spaces? This is not untypical of all new development. Due to high rent you can guarantee that there will be a minimum of 2 cars per unit. What happened to my Santa Barbara?
Congrats to The Baker’s Table - and their oddly places sign over grate - they have the BEST tuna salad ( lemony and herby, oily with capers & cornichon-) and even better, the Santa Ynez Florist is moving to the shop directly east of new Baker’s Table! With the pot shop going in at the old STAR DRUGS one block south of Sagunto/directly behind Post office- the gauntlet has dropped….
I count 36 units on the Garden St proposal.

Only in today’s crazy California real estate market would you expect to pay almost $4mil for a house WITH NO KITCHEN. (2215 Edgewater Way)
