Carmel Partners wants to build nearly 400 apartments in place of a 1970s office building in Long Beach.

The San Francisco-based developer has filed plans to build a six-story complex at  6615 East Pacific Coast Highway, west of the San Gabriel River in the southeast section of the city, Urbanize Los Angeles reported.

The project, known as Marketplace, would replace a two-story, 45,000-square foot office. A second office building at 6695 East PCH would be preserved.

Plans call for 390 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with 5,400 square feet of ground-floor shops and restaurants. An unspecified parking area would serve 576 cars.

The complex would include a rooftop deck with a pool, four central courtyards, plus a fitness center and co-working room.

The developer is seeking state density bonus incentives for a larger building than zoning rules allow in exchange for 17 affordable apartments for households with very-low income.

The white and gray apartments, designed by Orange-based AO, would include vertical windows, exterior balconies and large corner eaves with black trim, according to a rendering.

The Carmel Partners project would be the third apartment complex planned for PCH, across the river north of Seal Beach.

Across the street, Onni Group plans to build nearly 600 apartments with ground-floor shops and restaurants at 6500 East PCH, facing the marina. The Vancouver, Canada,-based developer would bulldoze the six-acre Marina Shores shopping center.

Next door to the east, Holland Partner Group plans to build 290 apartments with ground-floor shops and restaurants at 6700 East PCH, by the river. The Vancouver, Washington,-based developer would replace a two-story office building.Carmel Partners is also behind plans for high-rise buildings in the Arts District in Downtown Los Angeles, a building linked to the City Hall corruption scandal, and next to Beverly Hills on La Cienega Boulevard, according to Urbanize. Pending apartment complexes include projects in East Hollywood and Sawtelle.
