KINGS BEACH, Calif. – On Wednesday, May 15, an informational meeting regarding the proposed 39 North mixed-use redevelopment project was held at the North Tahoe Event Center in Kings Beach. The event, hosted by developer Kingsbarn Capital and Development alongside Exline and Co and OZ Architecture, attracted a substantial and vocal crowd.
The 39 North project seeks to enhance Kings Beach with a new development featuring a 179-room hotel, 38 for-sale townhomes, and 62 workforce housing units. The project will encompass two sites in Kings Beach: a 3.7-acre central property and a 1.3-acre parcel at the eastern gateway. It will stand at 74 feet tall and around 500 feet long.
Designed with sustainable practices and adhering to the U.S. Green Building Standards, the project will include 8,300 square feet of retail space along North Lake Boulevard. The vision for 39 North includes creating a community space where residents and visitors can enjoy access to the lake, local dining, outdoor fire pits, and a farmer’s market.
