Western Alliance Bank Provides $35 Million Financing for Major Capital Improvements at Marina City Club

MARINA DEL REY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Marina City Club, one of Southern California’s most iconic residential communities, is set for a transformative upgrade with $35 million in financing from Western Alliance Bank’s Alliance Association Banking group. This funding enables the Marina City Club Homeowners Association to complete structural repairs and introduce new amenities without imposing a special assessment on homeowners.

Located at 4333 Admiralty Way, Marina City Club is a landmark property along the Southern California coastline. The three curved towers, famously developed by Howard Hughes in the 1970s, are home to more than 600 residences. The property features resort-style amenities including tennis courts, a fitness center, swimming pools, restaurant, café, hair salon, a spa and event spaces.

Western Alliance Bank’s financing is enabling the Marina City Club Homeowners Association to complete structural repairs and upgrades to its recreation deck and elevator systems without the need for a special assessment to the ownership. The capital improvement project will waterproof and resurface the recreation deck, modernize elevator systems and introduce a range of new amenities, including barbecue areas, basketball and bocce courts, new gathering spaces, updated Court Club facilities and the only indoor pickleball court in the Los Angeles area.

“Marina City Club has a long and storied history in Marina del Rey and remains one of the area’s most iconic residential communities,” said Roula Sakellakos, vice president at Western Alliance Bank.

“This financing supports essential structural and amenity improvements that will ensure the property continues to shine as the jewel of Marina del Rey for generations to come. We are proud to partner with Marina City Club on this next chapter,” added Daniel Corwin, vice president of HOA lending at Western Alliance Bank.

The project reflects the collaboration of multiple stakeholders, including Marina City Club Owners Association, Essex Property Trust, and Los Angeles County, which owns the land on which the property sits. Western Alliance Bank worked closely with all parties to develop a tailored financing structure that addressed the property’s unique ownership framework.

“Marina City Club is an important part of Marina del Rey’s history and identity,” said Jennie Twyman, general manager of Marina City Club. “Western Alliance Bank understood the complexity of this project and was instrumental in helping us move forward with improvements that maintain the property’s integrity and enhance the experience for everyone who lives here.”
