• Essex Sells Waterfront Los Angeles Asset (multihousingnews.com) — A major Marina del Rey landmark, The Promenade at Marina City Club on Admiralty Way, has been sold for $24.8 million, its first sale in more than 20 years. The 101-unit waterfront community, on county-leased land with extensive amenities and boat slips, reflects broader shifts in Los Angeles' multifamily market, including rising cap rates and lower per-unit prices.
   

• $150-million superyacht owned by J.K. Rowling docked in Marina del Rey (newsnationnow.com) — A 292-foot, $150 million superyacht linked to author J.K. Rowling is currently docked in Marina del Rey, turning heads along the waterfront. The vessel, reportedly capable of hosting 14 guests and 27 crew, arrived August 30 with its name partially concealed, and it's unclear whether Rowling herself is in town or simply lending Marina del Rey some celebrity buzz.
