In the original part of the
Valencia
Town Centre, shown in this photo, you will find several blocks
of shopping and dining, as well as office buildings in a
California/Tuscan architectural style. This area, east side of
McBean Parkway, is the "downtown" of Santa Clarita.

The west side of McBean Parkway
To the west, a newer part of Town Center could potentially be called
the "French Quarter". The architectural style of many buildings,
while still Californian, is clearly influenced by buildings in the south
of France.
 |
This small park with its fountain
and arbor at the back gives the impression of being in the South
of France. In fact, it is at the west end of Town Centre Drive
in Valencia. |
 |
Of course, there is shopping on Town
Centre Drive on the west side of McBean Parkway, as well as
condos and apartment buildings. Residents of these buildings can
walk to restaurants and shopping--just as if they were living in
an urban center. |
Many of the buildings were developed to
be condos, but are now a mix of individually owned condos and rental
units owned by the developer. Be sure to ask your real estate agent
about the impact of this if you decide to purchase a condo in this area.

Even further to the west, behind the
Town Centre condos is a golf course and a
townhome community, Avignon -- which continues the French theme
of this area. |
