MISSION MERIDIAN VILLAGE, SOUTH PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
A five-minute walk to the new South Pasadena
Gold Line Station, Mission Meridian Village offers 67 beautiful condominiums for sale in a variety of interesting floor
plans. This includes 14 artist lofts with 18-foot ceiling where natural light and panoramic views abound.
CHA is leading a public/private partnership
that includes the City of South Pasadena, the State of California and the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) to develop
a unique transit-oriented, mixed-use development adjacent to the future Gold Line light-rail station in South Pasadena (opening July 2003).
CHA’s development partner is Lambert Development of New York, along with Wells Fargo Bank. Mission Meridian Village will
include 67 residential units -- 53 courtyard condominium units that are designed to mesh with the classic Craftsman-style bungalow
architecture of the area, as well as 14 artist live/work lofts that will complement the brick architecture of adjacent
buildings in the historic Mission Street district.
The project also will include the public parking component to serve the new South Pasadena Gold Line station with a
324-vehicle parking structure. The project will have 4,000 s.f. of neighborhood- and commuter-serving retail, including
a café/ market, newsstand and a bicycle shop for storage and maintenance.
The project architect is the “New Urbanist” firm Moule & Polyzoides of Pasadena.
