A Makers Park

An Innovative 16.5 Acre Makers Park

Carlsbad Gateway Center is a 16.5 acre Makers’ Park that has diversified its tenant mix to include innovation, commercial kitchens, health and wellness, and technology, in addition to standard office and warehouse uses. Because of its small spaces, flexible zoning, affordable rents, and wide array of permitted uses, CGC is the perfect location for small, start-up, and incubator businesses to get started on their road to success in a welcoming park like setting.

Over 80 small businesses call Carlsbad Gateway Center their home. A supportive environment created between the makers, business owners, property management and owners of the property fosters a unique type of community for all business types. Carlsbad Gateway Center hand selects its tenants and helps to create a space to fit their needs, often times making the production of the product a feature in the design of the space.

Carlsbad Gateway Center offers ideal spaces for small businesses to thrive—connecting makers with consumers.

Consumers will be able to find craft beer, kombucha, physical therapy, coffee, bread and pastries, cycling gear, high fashion workout clothing, pilates, organic skin care and more while exploring Carlsbad Gateway Center.
