South Bay/Beach Cities: 360 at The South Bay

Grand Opening is July 28, 2007 from 10:00-5:00 pm



Entrance to 360 at South Bay

I've been seeing a lot of searches on my site for information on 360 at The South Bay so I thought I would provide a first look at what happening on the site.
The development is located on the old LA Air Force Station in El Segundo or SAMSO as it was called by most residents. In a complicated landswap deal the base was moved to new headquarters and the old base area was sold for housing to the William Lyon Company.



It looks as if 360 South Bay will be a very nice community although a bit more inland then many people may realize. Truthfully I don't know whether it will be considered El Segundo or Hawthorne because of the landswap that occurred. Technically it is in El Segundo but the school district will be Wiseburn not El Segundo.

I did notice that on the 360 site they are very careful not to mention a city. The same thing happened with Fusion which is in Hawthorne but across the street from Manhattan Beach.. it was also designated as Fusion South Bay rather then showing a Hawthorne address. The main reason is of course South Bay sounds like beach even though it is a few miles from the beach and definitely not in Manhattan Beach which is what a lot of people thought when they first hit the market.



The are building fast and furiously to get some models up and open sometime this summer. I don't know what the prices will be but am guessing there will be a fairly wide variety of prices with a few entry level units and others priced significantly higher. a lot of the units will be large.. over 1600 sqft which is nice for families or those who need more space.
There are 5 models that vary in design and size. The units will range from studios to 4 bedrooms and will be 957 sqft to 2729 sqft. I think they will be many similar elements found in Playa Vista in the Marina.
As I receive more information I will continue to post it here along with more pictures as the building moves forward
