Norwood Studios Redevelopment Vision

Norwood Studios is the TTC Trust’s conceptual redevelopment vision for an approximately 3.529-acre site along the Norwood Avenue corridor in North Sacramento. The preliminary plan is intended to create a thoughtfully planned mixed-use community that may include workforce-oriented studio housing, live/work units, youth learning space, community gathering areas, and neighborhood-serving uses. The vision is designed to support long-term investment, local entrepreneurship, housing opportunity, and continued revitalization in the surrounding area. All concepts remain preliminary and are subject to due diligence, engineering, financing, market feasibility, utility coordination, entitlement review, and applicable City of Sacramento approvals.

Project Vision

The proposed Norwood Studios concept is being evaluated as an owner-led mixed-use development combining housing, entrepreneurship, education, neighborhood services, and shared community space.

The long-term objective is to create a development that:

  • Expands workforce-oriented housing opportunities
  • Supports small businesses and local entrepreneurship
  • Provides flexible live/work opportunities
  • Creates space for youth learning and tutoring
  • Encourages resident interaction and neighborhood connection
  • Retains active neighborhood-serving commercial uses where feasible
  • Improves underutilized land through responsible infill development
  • Contributes to long-term economic investment in North Sacramento
This conceptual image presents one potential architectural vision for Norwood Studios, a proposed mixed-use redevelopment centered on Parcel 26, an approximately 3.529-acre site in North Sacramento.

The preliminary concept includes approximately 64 total units, consisting of 60 workforce-oriented studio apartments and four live/work units. The vision also considers shared rooftop and community gathering areas intended to support resident interaction, neighborhood connectivity, and long-term livability.

The redevelopment is intended to expand housing opportunities, support infill development, encourage neighborhood-serving business activity, and contribute to the continued revitalization of the Norwood Avenue corridor.
