Overview
The De Paul Center represents a rare opportunity to acquire approximately ±12.26 acres of contiguous institutional land within the City of Montebello, a mature and fully urbanized Los Angeles County submarket where large-scale redevelopment opportunities are increasingly limited.
Developed in the mid-20th century as a seminary and educational campus, the property offers a compelling combination of institutional heritage, physical scale, and strategic positioning within a region experiencing sustained housing demand.
Identified by the City of Montebello as a Housing Opportunity Site within its adopted General Plan and Housing Element, the property is contemplated for medium- to high-density residential redevelopment, subject to entitlement approvals.
Located approximately nine miles east of Downtown Los Angeles, the site benefits from established infrastructure, regional connectivity, and proximity to employment corridors, positioning it as a generational infill redevelopment opportunity within one of Southern California’s most constrained housing markets.
