Vista Del Mar at Headland Condominiums
17 residential units to rebuild within an established hillside condominium community, with existing plans, a defined site layout, and a future amenity vision below the lower residential terrace.
Palisades Drive · Pacific Palisades · Los Angeles
Vista Del Mar Townhomes — originally developed as Headland Condominiums — is an established coastal community off Palisades Drive. The reconstruction scope covers 17 total-loss units at 1900–1932, lost in the January 2025 fire.
The remaining 8 units at 1934–1948 survived intact and sit outside the reconstruction scope. The result is a contained, well-documented rebuild within a recognized footprint — not raw ground-up development from a blank site.
The rebuild is a disciplined reconstruction within the existing footprint and original architectural framework — not a ground-up redesign. Townhome sizes and the exterior design language are preserved; the sequence below traces each unit from its current condition back to a finished coastal residence.
Current burned / damaged state documented prior to reconstruction.
Reconstruction begins on the original, established footprint.
The structural frame is rebuilt to the original architectural framework.
Exterior is restored in the community's existing design language.
Finished residences, consistent in size and character with the community.
No change to townhome size and no change to the main exterior design language. Interior redesign and amenity upgrades will be addressed in a later phase.
A later phase envisions a larger pool and upgraded lower-level recreation / lounge space — presented as forward-looking vision, subject to approvals.
