Paseo Nuevo, Outdoor shopping center in downtown Santa Barbara, United States.
Paseo Nuevo is an outdoor shopping center in downtown Santa Barbara with extensive retail space and pedestrian walkways. Spanish Colonial Revival architecture appears throughout the property, creating a cohesive visual style.
The center was developed in 1990 by the Santa Barbara City Redevelopment Agency under the design direction of architect John Field. Its creation was part of efforts to modernize the city's retail district.
The center blends national retailers with local boutiques in a setting that reflects Santa Barbara's architectural style. This mix shows how the city balances local character with contemporary shopping.
The center is accessible from parking entrances on Chapala Street, with the main courtyard and walkways easy to navigate. Ample parking is available throughout to accommodate shoppers visiting the different stores and restaurants.
During winter celebrations, the courtyard transforms with artificial snow displays that create a seasonal atmosphere. The center also hosts monthly painting classes open to community members.
