Columbia Place


655 Columbia Street & 620 State Street

Columbia Place is a low-rise condo building in the Marina District neighborhood of downtown San Diego (92101).  With just 103 units, Columbia Place is a “socal style” complex with open interior courtyards and walkways exposed to the elements (not that we have that many “elements” in downtown San Diego).  With Pantoja Park just across the street and a grocery a short walk away, Columbia Place condos is a great choice for people who want easy urban living.
