OC Vibe is a proposed lifestyle, entertainment, and residential neighborhood anchored by the existing Honda Center arena and ARTIC transit hub, and includes an approximately 5,700 seat live performance theater, 1,500 residential apartment units, including 195 affordable units, two hotels with a total of 550 rooms, an approximately 4 acre public park, private parks and open space, office buildings, restaurants and entertainment venues, and an approximately 6,000 seat outdoor amphitheater.

The project site is approximately 100 acres and is currently developed with a mix of uses including Honda Center, ARTIC, Arena Corporate Center, various commercial, office and industrial buildings, and vacant horse stables on the Southern California Edison easement (see Project Site Map attached).
The OC Vibe project entitlements are scheduled for City Council consideration at a public hearing to be held on September 27, 2022.

A copy of the Planning Commission staff report is attached to this report and includes a detailed description of the project and requested project entitlements.
