We promote OB through infrastructure improvement and volunteerism.
The Ocean Beach Community Development Corporation (OBCDC) is dedicated to the betterment of Ocean Beach, San Diego through continued infrastructure improvement projects, community involvement, and provision of affordable housing in OB. Some of our recent projects include:
VOLTAIRE STREET ARTS DISTRICT
The Voltaire Street Arts District initiative aims to reimagine a two-block stretch of Voltaire Street into a vibrant, designated arts district that will enhance public engagement with the arts, create an inclusive community for creators, and support local small businesses.
2025 COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM
We are excited to announce the 2025 Community Grants Program! This initiative is designed to support projects that enhance and improve the Ocean Beach community. We are particularly interested in funding capital improvement projects that will have a lasting and positive impact in OB.
SARATOGA CHILDRENS PARK & ADULT FITNESS STATIONS
Ocean Beach would like to join many of the other San Diego beach communities that have a children's playground and adult fitness area adjacent to the ocean. It would be wonderful for the residents and families that live in OB as well as the thousands of people that visit the beach.
The SHORES AT NORTH BEACH
The Shores at North Beach is a newly renovated supportive housing community in the heart of San Diego’s Ocean Beach neighborhood. OBCDC worked closely with Wakeland Housing to redevelop this unique property, which now provides thirteen affordable homes for formerly unhoused individuals.
Veterans MEMORIAL PLAZA
We are proud to announce that the OBCDC has partnered with the Midway Foundation to install Legacy Bricks honoring all of the veterans whose names were previously submitted and paid for—including those originally represented by Medallions in the OB Veterans Plaza. These Legacy Bricks will be permanently placed at Freedom Park at Burnham Navy Pier, right next to the USS Midway Museum—a fitting and honorable location to celebrate the legacy of our veterans.
