SANTA ANA, CA—In Orange County, a market once vehemently opposed to the concept, people are embracing the idea of well-planned, mixed-use and transit-oriented projects that “bring them what they want,” TCA Architects principal and studio director Michael Mindlin tells GlobeSt.com. Santa Ana, CA, will soon feature a new urban village when the 2700 Main Office Tower is redeveloped to include 27 Hundred, a 247-unit contemporary apartment community, according to the building’s owner Professional Real Estate Services.

TCA Architects’ design concept for 27 Hundred is the final piece in what aims to be a sustainable live-work-play environment incorporating the residential of 27 Hundred with the retail, dining, and entertainment of the adjacent MainPlace Mall and the office space within the Wells Fargo Tower. Construction on the renovation and addition is planned for the first quarter of 2018.
