This mixed-use project, sited at the former Metlox Potteries factory, is three blocks from the Manhattan Beach Pier. It includes a 40-room inn, two restaurants, a spa, a bakery, several retail spaces, second-floor office space, and two levels of underground parking. The centerpiece is an outdoor “living room” in the tradition of the European piazza, surrounded by stucco, stone, and cement-board clad retail buildings. This town square is activated by a sculptural fountain, art objects, a kiln-shaped fireplace, and a sycamore grove where visitors and locals can gather to rest and play.
