A plan by Shopoff Realty to build 250 homes and a 215-room hotel on a former oil storage tank site in Huntington Beach has been unanimously approved by the city council. 

“We are grateful to the city of Huntington Beach for their support of this project, which we believe will be a fantastic addition to the city, brightening this historically blighted stretch of the coast,” Shopoff Realty CEO Bill Shopoff said in a statement to the Orange County Register, which reported the news.

The project involves the construction of 200 for-sale homes, a 50-unit affordable housing complex and a 215-room hotel. Half of the units in the affordable complex will be set aside for hotel workers. The project will also include 19K SF of retail, the Register reported.
