History
What is now Santa Monica’s Third Street Promenade — a retail, entertainment and shopping destination that many consider the heart of Downtown — was originally a regular street with automobile traffic. That changed in 1965 when Third Street was converted into one of the first pedestrian malls in the country.
In 1984, the Santa Monica City Council created a city-funded nonprofit 501(c)(3) agency called the Third Street Development Corporation, later renamed the Bayside District Corporation, now Downtown Santa Monica, Inc. (DTSM, Inc.) and charged with the directive of keeping the area vital.
After a two-year planning process to develop a new approach to the area, a 1986 bond issue to fund the project and a 1988 groundbreaking, a new and revitalized Third Street Promenade launched September 1989.
The initial $13 million investment by the City of Santa Monica attracted additional private investment estimated at more than $500 million. The City also created the Third Street Promenade and Downtown District assessment fee. Funded by tenants within the district, the assessments, along with sales tax and other funding, generate approximately $13 million per year for Promenade management. This includes operation, maintenance and repair of public improvements — cleaning parking structures and pavement, landscaping maintenance, etc.— Santa Monica Police Department services, utilities and marketing programs.
Downtown Santa Monica, Inc. is bordered on the west and east sides by Ocean Avenue and 7th Street, respectively; the north and south sides by Wilshire Blvd. and Colorado Ave. The Third Street Promenade includes the three blocks between Broadway and Wilshire Blvd. There are public parking structures on 2nd and 4th streets between Wilshire Blvd. and Broadway and one structure just north of Wilshire on 4th Street.
