How An Oceanfront Development Process Unfolds

Termini: “Our goal is to create something that Del Mar and Solana Beach residents will think of as their own seaside gathering spot—a cornerstone of the community where we can come to celebrate special events, entertain and enjoy, with no barriers, for the first time.”

DEL MAR, CA—Encinitas, CA-based developers Zephyr and the Robert Green Co., the latter of which specializes in hospitality development, will work to develop the 16-acre stretch of oceanfront land that sits on the bluffs above North Beach here via a collaborative process with the residents and business owners in Del Mar and Solana Beach, Zephyr’s CEO Brad Termini tells GlobeSt.com. The firms have entered into an agreement to jointly acquire and develop the parcel located between Via De la Valle and North Beach—also known as Dog Beach to many locals—between Camino Del Mar and the Pacific Ocean.

The land consists of seven parcels owned by three separate owners, all of whom have executed agreements with the developers. According to Termini, the two companies are seeking community input on the project’s scope and design, which has not been finalized. Currently, proposed elements include a luxury resort, branded resort villas, restaurants and meeting space. A planning schedule will be announced soon.
