WAV Working Artists Ventura, California live/work

WAV represents the vanguard of innovative, sustainable cultural facilities. The Working Artists Ventura (WAV) project will be a $57 million, state-of-the-art community designed for artists and creative businesses. Located in the cultural district of downtown Ventura, California, WAV will offer affordable living and working space for over a hundred artists of every kind; painters, sculptors, dancers, poets, musicians, filmmakers and more.

The artists will bring to life a theater/gallery with performances, art openings and public gatherings. Arts-friendly small businesses including coffee houses, galleries, cafes, wine bars and jazz clubs will draw foot traffic and contribute to the vitality of the neighborhood. With the community involved in every phase of development, the WAV project is being created for diverse, mixed-income families and individuals. Supportive Housing will provide homes and crucial services to those at the lowest end of the income scale. Market-rate condominiums with ocean views bring higher-income households to the community and help to subsidize the affordable housing. The entire community will be designed and built to the highest standards of green building technology (LEEDTM certified), including recycled building materials, car sharing, water and energy conservation, and renewable power from the sun.

Currently under construction, the condominiums and commercial units at the CREST OF THE WAV are truly one-of-a-kind. Within minutes walking distance of the Pacific Ocean, the Ventura County Fairgrounds, the downtown Ventura cultural district, restaurants and shops, and located in the heart of a vibrant artists' community, WAV's thirteen penthouse condominiums are greener, healthier, more durable, livelier and a better value than anything in Ventura. Here's why...The Working Artists Ventura (WAV) project is a $57M, state-of-the-art community designed to meet the needs of Ventura's growing creative community. Designed by Adele Santos, Dean of Architecture at MIT, and constructed by a team that built Disney Hall, Cal State University and Magic Mountain, your condominium will provide unparalleled quality.

Each residential penthouse will offer large open floor plans, large windows with lots of available southern California light, sliding doors, high ceilings, private rooftop decks and built-in appliances. The WAV community will encourage participation of all members of the arts community and may host a variety of painters, sculptors, dancers, poets, musicians, film-makers and the like. The entire building and community will be smoke-free and will meet the highest standards of healthy green building technology (LEED Certified), including low-VOC paints and finished, roof-top solar panels and more. The WAV will be the only award-winning green building in Ventura.

Each commercial bay will be delivered TI-ready and will feature high-profile windows and doors, polished concrete flooring and shared restroom facilities per master bay (2). Entire commercial space is available for sale, and each bay is available for lease.

Fully-refundable reservations are NOW being accepted for the remaining units. Your reservation entitles you to purchase one (or more!) WAV units once the Final Public Report is issued, tentatively sometime mid-to-late summer 2009. Please feel free to call Jerry Breiner at 805-794-7323 for much more additional information - and to reserve YOUR spot on the CREST OF THE WAV.
