The portfolio from the corner of Millar and W. Main Street to just the middle of the block is finally offered for sale for $4,900,000, providing an opportunity to redevelop for the newest mixed-use project in El Cajon. From the City to Seller: "We’re thrilled to announce a major revitalization of downtown El Cajon! The Downtown El Cajon Business Partners have teamed up with New City America – a nationally recognized urban revitalization firm – to re-energize our city’s historic heart. Leading the charge is Marco Li Mandri, the visionary best known for transforming San Diego’s Little Italy into a vibrant destination as well as the Third Avenue Village in Chula Vista. With over 30 years of experience revitalizing communities." The City is inviting Developers to come and bring their MIXED-USE solutions to an area that deeply needs regeneration and life. This is the perfect block to start on. Seller has these four parcels starting with the vacant warehouse on the west corner of Millar Ave and W. Main St, a main thoroughfare into the City from both La Mesa and Santee. A portfolio sale would allow a developer acquire almost an entire block or about 21,000 SF +/-. This area desperately needs a shopping center with grocer, restaurants, small retail and office. The AB 2011 and SB6 allows a developer to expand his project and fulfill the needs of the city with the inclusion of residential or density units. The very low parking requirement sitting in the transit district should allow a developer to maximize their FAR for income producing suites and units.

"The area immediately surrounding the transit station is an aging industrial and heavy commercial area which interfaces with residential neighborhoods comprised of single and multi-family residences. The Planning Area contains a diverse mix of uses but lacks the appropriate infrastructure, public amenities, and commercial services to function as a complete neighborhood that promotes alternative mode of transportation and that is a desirable and attractive place to live, walk, bike, work or shop."

City of El Cajon has advised developers to look into the application of new state laws AB2011 and SB6 which may help you to up-zone the residential component of this proposed redeveloped mixed-use. This area is just east of the 8 freeway with frontage on W. Main St. as you enter El Cajon and walking distance to Trolley Line. City is anxious to see this area redeveloped into a "North Park" of the east with tons of walking traffic, restaurants, retail, office and some upper units. This area is just primed for your developers looking for a new mixed-use project with very low parking requirement. Buyer to investigate new AB 2011 and SB6 for increased housing to see if this industrial area and any conversions to residential units will allow for any variances in approval for additional units above the required mixed-use zoning set into place by City of El Cajon. The four lots are backing an older residential neighborhood and near trolley by 2 blocks.
